Albrecht Dürer's "Apocalypsis cu Figuris" is a woodcut print from 1511 depicting the figure of John the Evangelist receiving his vision of the Apocalypse. This print is a part of Dürer's series of woodcuts illustrating the Book of Revelations. The composition is dominated by John, seated and writing, with a winged eagle appearing to dictate the text. The artist's keen eye for detail and skillful use of light and shadow bring a sense of realism to the scene, making this print a significant example of early German Renaissance art. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York houses this woodcut, which is considered a significant work of art from the period.
