Albrecht Dürer, 1510 - The Last Judgement - fine art print

General description from National Gallery of Art (© - National Gallery of Art - www.nga.gov)

Medium: Woodcut

This Last Judgement is one of a series of woodcuts created by Dürer to illustrate a book called the Small Passion. Dürer's skill as a woodcutter is particularly evident here in his ability to create the illusion of folding and similar small details. The imaginatively rendered dragon in the bottom left of the scene serves as the gate to Hell; various demons and devils push and pull sinners into the dragon's mouth. Towards the bottom left, on the other hand, we see the chosen few being shown the way to Heaven. Jesus is central to the scene, and this is in accordance with his central role in human salvation. The figures kneeling before Christ are the Virgin Mary and St. John.
