Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Albrecht Dürer (1471 Nuremberg-1528 ibid.) Apokalipsis cum figuris (the Apocalypse), 1498. Woodcut and type printing). Dürer's Apocalypse sets a brilliant milestone in the 40-year-old rapid development of the book woodcut in letterpress printing. On the basis of an established tradition of depicting the Apocalypse, Albrecht Dürer tightened and dramatized the descriptions of the events in direct address to the viewer. With his impressive images in black and white, he shaped the imagination and expectations of the "last things" over many generations until today.
Deutsch: Albrecht Dürer (1471 Nürnberg-1528 ebd.) Apokalipsis cum figuris (die Apokalypse), 1498. Holzschnitt und Typendruck). Dürers Apokalypse setzt einen glanzvollen Meilenstein in der bis dahin 40-jährige rasanten Entwicklung des Buchholzschnittes im Letterndruck. Auf der Grundlage einer etablierten Darstellungstradition der Apokalypse straffte und dramatisiert der Albrecht Dürer die Schilderungen der Ereignisse in direkter Ansprache des Betrachters, Mit seinen eindrücklichen Bildern in Schwarz-Weiß prägte er die Vorstellung und Erwartungen von den „letzten Dingen“ über viele Generationen hinweg bis heute.
