''The Apocalypse'', also known as ''The Apocalypse with Pictures'' or ''The Apocalypse Woodcuts'', is a famous series of fifteen woodcuts by German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, published in 1498. This series is notable for its vivid and intricate depictions of scenes from the Book of Revelation by Saint John the Divine, the last book of the New Testament. The woodcuts are among the first major print projects that Dürer undertook after his first trip to Italy, and they are significant for their innovative iconography and their role in establishing Dürer's reputation as one of the foremost artists of his time.

The series was a groundbreaking work in the history of printmaking, both for its high artistic quality and for its subject matter. Dürer's ''Apocalypse'' was the first book in history to be published by an artist with illustrations and text in the vernacular, making it accessible to a broader audience. The woodcuts were larger and more complex than any that had been previously attempted in Europe, and their dramatic and expressive style had a profound influence on the visual language of the Northern Renaissance.

Dürer's ''Apocalypse'' reflects the social and religious turmoil of the time, with many Europeans fearing the end of the world was near. The vivid imagery and masterful technique employed by Dürer in these prints convey the intensity and chaos of the apocalyptic visions described in the biblical text. The series includes iconic images such as ''The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse'', which depicts the harbingers of the Last Judgment, and ''St. Michael Fighting the Dragon'', showing the archangel in battle with evil.

The ''Apocalypse'' series was not only a commercial success but also established Dürer's artistic reputation throughout Europe. It remains one of his most famous works and continues to be studied for its artistic innovation, its impact on the development of printmaking, and its reflection of the cultural and religious anxieties of the late 15th century.
