Albrecht Altdorfer

The image is a page with four black and white illustrations. The top left illustration depicts a chaotic scene with multiple nude men in a room with an arched ceiling and pillar; one man appears to hit another with a large hammer-like object. The top right illustration shows a scene with multiple nude men in a landscape with a tree, arch, and bridge; one man lies on the ground while others interact around him. The bottom left illustration features a battle scene with armored men exchanging blows; a brick building with an archway is in the background. The bottom right illustration depicts a chaotic scene outdoors with a tree and a body on the ground; multiple figures are present, some standing and others interacting. The page has a light-colored background with the handwritten number "61" and other illegible writing. The title of the work is "The Fall and Redemption of Man" by Albrecht Altdorfer.
