Knight Death and the Devil (German: Ritter Tod und Teufel) is a large 1513 engraving one of the three master prints of the German artist Albrecht Dürer. The print portrays an armored knight accompanied by his faithful dog riding through a narrow gorge flanked by a goat-headed devil and the figure of death riding a pale horse. Death holds an hourglass to remind the knight of the shortness of his life.
