From LinkedCulture

Bound to a fluted column with his arms chained overhead, Christ endures the flagellation in a woodcut barely five inches tall, yet Albrecht Dürer fills every centimeter with muscular tormentors mid-swing and robed observers watching beneath an open arch. The densely hatched lines define straining sinew and folded cloth with a precision that rivals engraving. Made in sixteenth-century Germany, this small print helped set a new standard for what the woodcut medium could achieve across all of Europe.
