In 1498, with Europe trembling before an Ottoman assault and mortally afraid of what the ominous year 1500 might bring, Albrecht Durer published his Apocalypse with Pictures, a hallucinatory exploration of the Revelation of St John.
Durer'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 Durer added to the second edition.
