"Joachim and the Angel, from Life of the Virgin" is a woodcut by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created around 1504 as part of a series depicting the life of the Virgin Mary. This woodcut illustrates the biblical story of Saint Joachim, the father of the Virgin Mary, who is visited by an angel while in the wilderness. The narrative is derived from the apocryphal Gospel of James, which elaborates on the early life of the Virgin Mary and her parents, Joachim and Anne.

In this scene, Dürer masterfully captures the moment of divine intervention, where Joachim is consoled by an angel who informs him that his wife, Anne, will conceive a child. The composition is rich with symbolic elements and showcases Dürer's skill in woodcut technique, with intricate details and a strong sense of depth and texture. The work reflects the Northern Renaissance's emphasis on detailed narrative and is a fine example of Dürer's graphic oeuvre, which played a significant role in the development of the woodcut as a serious artistic medium during this period.

"Joachim and the Angel, from Life of the Virgin" is part of a larger body of work that includes 19 other woodcuts, all of which contribute to the telling of the Virgin Mary's story, from her parents' lives to her own death and assumption. The series was widely disseminated and influential, reflecting both Dürer's religious convictions and his innovative approach to visual storytelling. As with many of Dürer's prints, this woodcut not only served as a devotional image but also as a testament to the artist's technical prowess and creative vision.
