In 1498, with Europe trembling before an Ottoman assault and mortally afraid of what the ominous year 1500 might bring, Albrecht Dürer published his Apocalypse with Pictures, a hallucinatory exploration of the Revelation of St John. Dürer's woodcut technique has never been equalled, and the Apocalypse remains one of the summits of Western art.

This edition reproduces all fifteen images together with their Bible texts, as well as the frontispiece Dürer added to the second edition.

AUTHOR: Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528), painter, printmaker and theorist, is widely considered the greatest German artist and one of the greatest artists of all time.

SELLING POINTS: .

Presenting Albrecht Dürer's greatest achievement: the 15 woodcuts illustrating the Book of Revelation .
