"Knight, Death and Devil" is a copper engraving by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, dated to 1513. As one of Dürer's most iconic and complex works, it belongs to a group of his master engravings, which also includes "Melencolia I" and "Saint Jerome in His Study." The piece is renowned for its exquisite detail, masterful use of the engraving medium, and its rich thematic content, which has been subject to various interpretations over the centuries.

The engraving depicts a lone knight riding through a narrow gorge flanked by a pig-snouted devil and the figure of Death, who holds an hourglass. The knight, who is often interpreted as a symbol of moral fortitude or the "Christian Knight," appears resolute and unfazed by the menacing figures, which represent the spiritual and existential threats faced by humanity. The knight's faithful dog trots alongside him, symbolizing loyalty and the virtues of the knight.

Dürer's precise and intricate technique is evident in the work's textures and the interplay of light and shadow, which create a palpable sense of atmosphere and depth. The composition is balanced yet dynamic, with the figures leading the viewer's eye through the scene. The engraving is also notable for its allegorical complexity; scholars have debated its precise meaning for centuries, with interpretations ranging from a meditation on the human condition to an expression of the artist's personal religious and existential concerns.

"Knight, Death and Devil" is considered a masterpiece of Northern Renaissance art and reflects Dürer's engagement with humanist thought and his mastery of the engraving medium. The work is held in numerous collections and remains a subject of enduring fascination for art historians, scholars of the Renaissance, and the general public.
