"Scene from Maximilian's Triumphal Procession 12" is a woodcut print that forms part of a larger series known as "The Triumphal Procession" (Der Triumphzug), which is attributed to the German Renaissance artist Hans Burgkmair the Elder (1473–1531). This monumental work was commissioned by the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I around 1512 as a grandiose representation of his power and prestige. The entire procession, which was never completed in Maximilian's lifetime, was intended to be a paper procession, a printed series of images that would illustrate the emperor's triumphal procession, akin to those of ancient Roman emperors.

Hans Burgkmair the Elder, a prominent Augsburg painter and printmaker, was one of several artists who contributed to this ambitious project. The "Triumphal Procession" consists of 137 woodcut sections when combined, stretches over 54 meters in length, making it one of the largest prints ever produced during the Renaissance. Each scene depicts various elements of the emperor's retinue, including knights, heralds, royalty, exotic animals, and artillery, all showcasing the might and splendor of Maximilian's reign.

The 12th scene in this series, like the others, is characterized by its intricate detail and the use of fine lines, a testament to Burgkmair's skill in woodcut design. The prints were also notable for their innovative use of the chiaroscuro woodcut technique, which involved using multiple blocks to produce different tones and shades, thereby adding depth and richness to the images.

As a significant work of Northern Renaissance art, "Scene from Maximilian's Triumphal Procession 12" reflects the period's fascination with pageantry, as well as the political and cultural aspirations of the era. It remains an important historical document, providing insight into the representation of power and the use of art as propaganda during the early 16th century. The series is held in high esteem not only for its artistic merit but also for its contribution to the development of printmaking as a form of mass communication in Europe.
