"Allegory of Wrath" is a bronze relief by German Renaissance artist Peter Flötner, created around 1535. The artwork depicts a wrathful figure seated in a landscape, holding a sword in his hand and surrounded by other figures. The scene is likely an allegory of wrath, with the figure embodying anger and violence. The intricate detail and expressive figures are characteristic of Flötner's style, which blended classical influences with contemporary German artistic trends. The small size of the relief suggests it may have been intended for a personal collection or as part of a larger decorative scheme. The piece highlights Flötner's skill in representing human emotion through sculptural form.
