"Die Eröffnung des fünften und sechsten Siegels" (The Opening of the Fifth and Sixth Seals) is a renowned woodcut by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created in 1498. This work is part of Dürer's famous series of fifteen woodcuts known as the "Apocalypse," which illustrates scenes from the Book of Revelation. The series was published in two editions, one in 1498 and another in 1511, and it is considered one of the most significant achievements in the history of printmaking.

In "Die Eröffnung des fünften und sechsten Siegels," Dürer vividly depicts the dramatic and apocalyptic events described in Revelation 6:9-17. The woodcut captures the moment when the Lamb opens the fifth and sixth seals, unleashing a series of cataclysmic events on Earth. The composition is divided into two distinct sections: the upper part shows the souls of martyrs beneath the altar, crying out for justice, while the lower part portrays the chaos and terror that ensue as the sixth seal is opened, including a great earthquake, the darkening of the sun, and the falling of stars from the sky.

Dürer's masterful use of line and his attention to detail are evident in this work, as he skillfully conveys the intensity and emotion of the apocalyptic scenes. The intricate woodcut technique allows for a high level of detail and texture, enhancing the dramatic impact of the imagery. Dürer's "Apocalypse" series, including "Die Eröffnung des fünften und sechsten Siegels," had a profound influence on the visual culture of the time and remains a testament to his artistic genius and innovative approach to printmaking.

The "Apocalypse" series was groundbreaking not only for its artistic quality but also for its role in the dissemination of religious and apocalyptic imagery during the late 15th and early 16th centuries. Dürer's work reflects the anxieties and spiritual concerns of the period, as well as the growing interest in eschatological themes. Today, "Die Eröffnung des fünften und sechsten Siegels" is celebrated as a masterpiece of Renaissance art and a pivotal work in the history of Western printmaking.
