Apokalypse, lat. (Blockbuch)
The Apokalypse, a Latin block book printed from woodcut blocks around 1469, probably in Germany, for readers who wanted the Book of Revelation with pictures. The pages pair dense black-letter text columns with framed woodcut scenes of angels, a seven-headed dragon, and a fiery pit, drawn with bold hatched outlines a designer could borrow for high-contrast graphic work.
