"The Revelation of St John: 8. The Battle of the Angels" is a woodcut by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created as part of his "Apocalypse" series in 1498. This series, which includes 15 woodcuts, illustrates the Book of Revelation by John the Apostle, also known as the Apocalypse, the final book of the New Testament. Dürer's work on the Apocalypse series is notable for its innovative and expressive interpretation of the biblical text, and it played a significant role in the artist's early fame.

The eighth woodcut in the series, "The Battle of the Angels," depicts the dramatic scene described in Revelation 12:7-9, where the Archangel Michael and his angels fight against the dragon—identified as Satan—and his fallen angels. Dürer's composition captures the chaos and ferocity of the celestial battle, with figures intertwined in a struggle that fills the entire frame of the woodcut.

Dürer's masterful use of line and contrast in this woodcut emphasizes the tumultuous energy of the scene. The intricate details and the dynamic movement of the figures showcase Dürer's technical skill and his ability to convey complex narratives through the medium of printmaking. The woodcut is characterized by its stark black-and-white imagery, which allows for a powerful visual impact and a sense of immediacy in the viewer's experience of the apocalyptic vision.

"The Battle of the Angels" is considered one of the most compelling images from the "Apocalypse" series and reflects Dürer's deep engagement with religious subject matter. The series was widely disseminated and influential, contributing to the spread of Dürer's reputation across Europe. Today, "The Revelation of St John: 8. The Battle of the Angels" is held in high regard as an exemplary work of Northern Renaissance art and is studied for its artistic and historical significance.
