EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print, titled "St. Michael fighting the Dragon" transports us back to the year 1498 in Germany during the Northern Renaissance. Created by Albrecht Dürer, a renowned artist of his time, this artwork showcases the eternal battle between good and evil. In this scene, St. Michael, an archangel known for his bravery and righteousness, fearlessly confronts a menacing dragon symbolizing Satan himself. With bow and arrow in hand and spear at the ready, he stands as a beacon of hope against darkness. The intricate details of Dürer's craftsmanship are evident in every stroke of this woodcut print. The intensity on St. Michael's face reflects his determination to conquer evil forces that threaten humanity. His heroic stance exudes power and resilience as he engages in this epic struggle. As we gaze upon this masterpiece from centuries past, we are reminded of the timeless themes it represents – courage triumphing over fear, righteousness prevailing over wickedness. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern world filled with its own battles against adversity, there is always hope for victory. This particular print is part of a private collection but has been made available for public appreciation through Fine Art Finder website (www. bridgemanart. com). Its historical significance combined with Dürer's exceptional skill make it an invaluable piece worth cherishing for generations to come.
