"Saint Michael Fighting the Dragon" is a woodcut by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created circa 1498 as part of his "Apocalypse" series. This series, which includes fifteen woodcuts, illustrates the narrative of the Book of Revelation by Saint John the Divine and was Dürer's first major print project. The woodcut depicts the Archangel Michael in combat with the dragon, representing the forces of evil, as described in Revelation 12:7–9. In this dramatic scene, Michael is shown as a knightly figure, armored and brandishing a spear, while the dragon coils menacingly below.

Dürer's work is notable for its intricate detail and the innovative use of the woodcut medium, which allowed for a level of complexity previously unseen in this type of print. The "Apocalypse" series was a commercial success and played a significant role in establishing Dürer's reputation across Europe. "Saint Michael Fighting the Dragon" exemplifies Dürer's skill in conveying movement and emotional intensity, as well as his ability to blend Northern Renaissance artistic traditions with the emerging humanist ideals of the time.

The woodcut is also significant for its theological implications, as it reflects the contemporary interest in eschatology and the end times, which was particularly resonant in the context of the social and religious upheavals of the late 15th and early 16th centuries. Today, "Saint Michael Fighting the Dragon" is recognized as a masterpiece of woodcut art and an important work in the oeuvre of Albrecht Dürer, whose contributions to printmaking continue to be celebrated for their technical mastery and profound artistic expression.
