Dürer himself referred to Knight, Death and the Devil, as it is known today, simply as ‘the rider’, thereby leaving room for much speculation, with the interpretations of the figure of the knight ranging from emperor to pope to heretic and robber baron. There
can be little doubt, however, that his knight is a a heroic figure, who fears neither death nor the devil. Today it is the generally accepted view that he represents the ideal of the Christian Knight or ‘miles christianus’, a concept which stems from the Epistles of Paul, but was revived in Dürer’s times by Erasmus of Rotterdam in 1503.
