Peter Flötner's woodcut *Allegorie met strijd van Tirannie, Woeker en Hypocrisie tegen Verstand, Gerechtigheid en het Woord Gods* (1525) is a dynamic and complex allegory of the struggle between good and evil. The print depicts a battle between a winged figure representing tyranny, usury, and hypocrisy, and figures representing reason, justice, and the word of God. Flötner's use of detailed line work and expressive figures enhances the sense of conflict and drama in the scene, making this a powerful and visually captivating example of 16th-century German woodcut art.
