Journal: Comparing and Contrasting Woodcuts
Albrecht Dürer, The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, 1498 Emil Nolde, Prophet, 1912
Compare and contrast Albrecht Dürer, The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, 1498, with Emil Nolde, Prophet, 1912. Both images are woodcuts, and both images are famous and powerful prints, but they “work” for entirely different reasons.
1. First, explain how the woodcut process works—in your own words.
2. Second, compare and contrast the two prints. What feelings or emotions are conveyed by the two images? How do the artists’ choices in technique, style, and composition affect the impact on the viewer?
