This image is a detailed woodcut depicting the biblical scene of the Flagellation of Christ. At the center of the image, Jesus is tied to a column, with a muscular, nude upper body. His head is adorned with a crown of thorns. To his left and right, two men, perhaps Roman soldiers, are seen flogging him with bundles of rods. Their postures are dynamic, highlighting the force and movement as they carry out the punishment. In the background, architectural elements such as arches and columns are visible, giving a sense of depth to the scene. On the right side, another male figure, possibly Pontius Pilate, dressed in elaborate robes and headwear, is observing the scene. He stands slightly elevated on steps, which further reinforces his authority and detachment from the act of violence being carried out. The woodcut features intricate line work, capturing fine details and expressions, adding to the dramatic intensity of the scene.

This is a black and white etching or engraving depicting a scene with classical or mythological elements. In the center, there is a muscular male figure being restrained by two other males, all of whom appear to be in a state of duress or conflict. The central figure is nearly nude and is raising his right hand, possibly in protest or to wield an unseen object. The other two figures appear to be trying to subdue him, grabbing his arms. They are all heavily muscled, with exaggerated anatomical detail typical of classical or Renaissance art. On the right of the image, stands a man with a beard, wearing classical robes, holding a staff, possibly a figure of authority or a wise man observing or directing the conflict. In the background, behind this figure and the struggling group, there are other individuals who also appear to be spectators or participants in this situation. They are dressed in varied attire, some looking more like commoners and others in robes, suggesting a mixture of social standings. The background features architectural elements like columns and a tiled floor, indicating that this scene may be set in a public space perhaps from Classical Antiquity or something akin to it. The etching style, allegorical content, and the depiction of human forms suggest that this work may be from the Renaissance or a period influenced by Classical art. There are some inscriptions at the bottom, but they are not completely legible in the image provided.

This appears to be a medieval or Renaissance-era woodcut print depicting a scene of torture or martyrdom. The central figures show muscular men with their arms bound or raised above their heads, appearing to be in distress. Several robed figures stand watching the scene, and the composition includes architectural elements like steps and what appears to be a partial archway or structural framework. The artwork is rendered in a characteristic woodcut style with strong linear marks and cross-hatching to create shading and dimension. The image has a monochromatic appearance typical of woodcut prints from this historical period. There appears to be some text or markings in the lower left corner, possibly an artist's signature or print mark.

This image depicts a detailed engraving or etching, likely from the Renaissance period based on the style and subject matter. The scene shows several nude male figures, some with sculptural, idealized physiques reminiscent of classical statuary. They appear to be engaged in some kind of confrontation or struggle on an elevated platform or stage, with an architectural background consisting of arches and columns. The intricate linework creates a dramatic interplay of light and shadow, lending the figures a sense of three-dimensionality and dynamism. The composition draws the eye upward as the rising figures culminate in the central one with upraised arms. While the specific narrative or allegory is unclear without more context, the image exemplifies the technical mastery and fascination with the nude male form that characterized much Renaissance art, especially in printmaking. The Latin text at the bottom, likely identifying the artist and subject, further points to its origin in that era's intellectual and artistic circles.

The image is a monochromatic etching by the German artist Hans Sebald Beham, created in 1543. The artwork depicts a scene from Greek mythology, specifically the story of Prometheus. Prometheus, a Titan, is shown being punished by Zeus for stealing fire from the gods and giving it to humanity. In the image, Prometheus is bound to a rock by two figures, one of whom is holding a spear. Another figure, possibly representing Zeus, is holding a staff and appears to be giving orders to the others. The scene is set in an ancient Greek-style building, with columns and a high ceiling. The figures are depicted in a dynamic and dramatic pose, with the use of strong lines and shading to create a sense of depth and movement. The image is signed by the artist, "M. Hern. Beham," in the lower left corner.
