Created by Hans Springinklee in the 16th century, this woodcut print depicts a powerful scene of St George, clad in armor, standing triumphantly over a defeated dragon. The image is rich with symbolism and religious significance. St George, known as the patron saint of soldiers and knights, represents bravery and chivalry. As the protector of emperors, he embodies strength and courage in times of war. The attention to detail is remarkable; every line etched into the woodblock brings life to this mythical creature slayer. The flag held high by St George bears the emblem of Emperor Maximilian I's Holy Roman Empire, emphasizing their close association.
