term "apocalypse" comes from the Greek apokalupsis, meaning "revelation."
In the Book of Revelation, the last book of the New Testament,
John presents his vision of a future in which God banishes worldly evil
and ushers in a perfect age. Dürer's series of fifteen woodcuts vividly
brings these prophetic revelations to life.
