Black-and-white woodcut print with tiers of angels in clouds, a central Virgin rising in glory, and three scenes below of apostles around a deathbed.

Death and Assumption of the Virgin Mary

A densely detailed black-and-white woodcut-style print in tiers: choirs of angels with labeled ranks fill the clouds above, while a central Virgin is borne upward in glory. Three bottom panels show apostles gathered around a deathbed and figures in an interior scene.
