"Die Predigt des Jakobus Major gegen den Zauberer Hermogenes" (The Sermon of James the Greater against the Sorcerer Hermogenes) is a woodcut by the German Renaissance artist Hans Burgkmair the Elder. Created in the early 16th century, this work is part of a series of illustrations depicting the life and acts of the apostle Saint James the Greater, one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus. The woodcut illustrates a narrative from the apocryphal "Acts of James," where Saint James confronts Hermogenes, a magician who attempts to use sorcery against him.

Burgkmair's depiction is notable for its detailed representation of the characters and the setting, reflecting the artist's mastery of the woodcut medium and his ability to convey complex narratives through visual art. The work is emblematic of the Northern Renaissance's interest in religious themes, as well as the era's fascination with the occult and the struggle between good and evil.

Hans Burgkmair the Elder (1473–1531) was an influential Augsburg-based artist known for his contributions to the development of the woodcut as a fine art form. His works often featured religious subjects, allegorical scenes, and portraits, and he was a contemporary of other renowned artists such as Albrecht Dürer.

"Die Predigt des Jakobus Major gegen den Zauberer Hermogenes" is appreciated not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical significance as an example of early 16th-century religious propaganda and the role of art in disseminating biblical stories and moral lessons to a largely illiterate population. The woodcut is part of a rich tradition of visual storytelling that was instrumental in shaping the visual culture of the period.
