"Aristoteles und Phyllis" is a woodcut by the German Renaissance artist Hans Brosamer, which depicts the popular medieval legend of Phyllis and Aristotle. The artwork is believed to have been created in the 16th century, during a period when Brosamer was active as an artist, from around 1520 to 1554. The woodcut illustrates the story of Phyllis, the mistress of Alexander the Great, who, according to the legend, seduced the philosopher Aristotle, convincing him to let her ride on his back like a horse to demonstrate his love and submission to her. This tale was a common allegorical theme in medieval and Renaissance art, symbolizing the triumph of love and passion over reason and intellect.

Hans Brosamer, who was born around 1500 and died in 1554, was known for his woodcuts and engravings, which often featured religious subjects, allegories, and classical themes. His work is characterized by its detailed representation and the use of fine lines, typical of the Northern Renaissance style. "Aristoteles und Phyllis" is one of Brosamer's secular works and reflects the artist's interest in classical antiquity and humanist themes, which were prevalent among Renaissance artists and intellectuals.

The woodcut itself is a detailed representation of the scene, with Aristotle on his hands and knees, and Phyllis seated triumphantly upon his back, holding a whip and reins, symbolizing her control over the great philosopher. The composition often includes a landscape or architectural background, and the figures are dressed in contemporary clothing, which was a common practice in Renaissance art to make ancient stories more relatable to contemporary audiences.

"Aristoteles und Phyllis" by Hans Brosamer is an important work in the study of Renaissance art, as it not only showcases the technical skill of the artist but also reflects the cultural and intellectual preoccupations of the time. The piece is held in various art collections and has been the subject of scholarly analysis in the context of Renaissance iconography and gender studies.
