Painting Description
"The Revelation of St John, 13. The Adoration of the Lamb and the Hymn of the Chosen" is a woodcut by the renowned German artist Albrecht Dürer, created as part of his larger series "The Apocalypse," which was first published in 1498. This series, also known as "The Apocalypse with Pictures," is considered one of Dürer's seminal works and comprises a total of fifteen woodcuts illustrating the Book of Revelation by Saint John the Divine. The series showcases Dürer's masterful blending of Northern Renaissance art with the Italian Renaissance's emerging principles of perspective and proportion.
The thirteenth woodcut in the series, "The Adoration of the Lamb and the Hymn of the Chosen," depicts a scene from Revelation 14:1-5, where the Lamb of God is worshipped by the 144,000 redeemed souls. These souls, who are said to be virgins and the first fruits unto God and the Lamb, are marked with the Lamb's and his Father's name on their foreheads. In Dürer's composition, the Lamb stands on Mount Zion, surrounded by the chosen ones and angels, in a serene and orderly arrangement that contrasts with the tumultuous and often chaotic imagery found in other parts of the Apocalypse series.
Dürer's work is notable for its intricate detail and the technical mastery of the woodcut medium. The fine lines and elaborate patterns demonstrate his ability to achieve a remarkable level of precision and subtlety, which was groundbreaking for the time. "The Adoration of the Lamb and the Hymn of the Chosen" is not only a reflection of Dürer's artistic skill but also an expression of the complex theological ideas and vivid imagery contained within the Book of Revelation.
As with the rest of the Apocalypse series, this woodcut was widely disseminated and had a significant impact on the visual arts, contributing to the spread of Reformation ideas through its powerful imagery and innovative graphic design. The series was published in both Latin and German editions, making it accessible to a broad audience and solidifying Dürer's reputation as one of the foremost artists of his age. "The Adoration of the Lamb and the Hymn of the Chosen" remains a key example of Dürer's legacy and an important work within the history of religious art.
