EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Count of St. Germain, famous alchemist, 1783" transports us back to the enigmatic world of the renowned Count himself. Created by Thomas N. , a talented artist from the late 18th century, this print is now housed in the prestigious Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. The Count of St. Germain was an extraordinary figure who dabbled in various fields with great success and intrigue. In this portrait, we see him portrayed as a pianist, composer, adventurer, and even a fur-clad violonist. His inventive spirit is evident through his lace-trimmed attire and elegant wig that exude sophistication. While some may have dismissed him as a charlatan or amateur due to his diverse interests and pursuits, others were captivated by his mastery over occultism and theosophy. The Count's association with the White Eagle Lodge and Master Rakockzy further adds to his mystical aura. As we gaze upon this half-length portrait of the Count of St. Germain, we are transported into a world where boundaries between reality and fantasy blur effortlessly. It serves as a testament to both his undeniable charm and mysterious nature that continue to fascinate scholars today. This engraving not only captures the essence of an intriguing historical figure but also showcases Thomas N.
