Description from the seller

Beautiful metal relief plate of the famous copper engraving Knight, Death and the Devil (Ritter, Tod und Teufel) from 1513 by the German artist Albrecht Dürer, mounted on a wooden background.

Features of the artwork

• The depiction: A armored Christian knight on horseback rides fearlessly through a rocky gorge. He is followed and watched by the waning figure of Death (with an hourglass) and a grotesque, goat-like devil.

• Symbolism: The work portrays moral steadfastness, virtue and the fearless warrior of faith who is not deterred by mortality or evil.

• Materiality: Unlike the original paper engravings from Dürer's time, this piece is executed as a copper relief mounted on a wooden panel.

Dimensions: listed in the photos.

Condition: in good condition with minimal signs of wear.

Photos are part of the description.
These are taken under artificial light, color may vary. Mood impressions are shown (AI)
