Albrecht Dürer's "St. Peter And St. John Healing The Cripple," a powerful woodcut created in 1513, depicts a scene from the Bible where St. Peter and St. John heal a crippled beggar. Dürer's masterful use of line and detail brings the scene to life, emphasizing the contrast between the vibrant figures and the shadowy background. The composition, with the focus on the central figures, creates a sense of drama and the impact of the miracle. This masterful engraving reveals Dürer's technical prowess and ability to convey emotion and religious fervor in a powerful, captivating image.
