Engraving in work by Koffsky - Adam McLean - 10-01-2023
An interesting engraving from
Vincentius Koffsky.
Hermetische Schriften, denen wahren Schülern und Nachfolgern unserer geheimen spagirischen Kunst zum Nuz beschrieben und hinterlassen den 4ten Octobr. Ao. Domini MCCCCLXXVIII.
Christ is crucified on a tree. A monk collects the blood from a wound in his side. In the background is a temple, shaped like a furnace. The three sections are labelled Mars, Antimony and the Sun/Gold.
