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 15
images together with their Bible texts, as well as the frontispiece
Dürer added to the second edition.
