O díle

Albrecht Dürer's Holy Trinity, a woodcut made in 1511, is in the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland. Parallel strokes, intersecting hatching and short marks are packed at different densities to produce many shades of tone. Their arrangement describes solid forms and depth within the scene. Dürer also leaves parts of the paper unprinted, using their white surface to brighten selected passages. These contrasts lend drama to the composition, while the changing spacing of the marks allows the woodcut to suggest gradual tonal transitions.

Slovy muzea

The Holy Trinity represents the pinnacle of Dürer's achievement in woodcut. Using a system of parallel lines, crosshatching, and dashes of varying densities, he attained a wide range of tone and an extremely subtle representation of three-dimensional forms and spatial depth. In addition, he utilized white areas of the paper to heighten parts of the composition for an intensely dramatic effect.
