EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases an intriguing emblem titled "Emblema L Draco mulierem haec illum interimit". Created by Michaelis Majeri, a renowned alchemist and philosopher of the 17th century, this artwork delves into the secrets of nature and hidden knowledge. The image depicts a powerful dragon attacking a woman, symbolizing the destructive forces that can be unleashed when one delves too deeply into forbidden realms. The intense scene is further intensified as both figures are drenched in blood, representing the consequences that accompany such pursuits. Majeri's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this etching. The copper engravings bring out intricate textures and fine lines with remarkable precision. Each element within the composition serves a purpose - from ingeniously crafted emblems to thought-provoking sentiments and learned epigrams - all contributing to its profound meaning. Displayed on page 148 of Majeri's seminal work "Secretioris naturae secretorum scrutinium chymicum" this emblem offers viewers an opportunity for deep contemplation. It invites us to reflect on our own pursuit of knowledge and warns against crossing certain boundaries without careful consideration. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are reminded not only of Majeri's brilliance but also his ability to convey complex ideas through visual artistry. This piece stands as a testament to his intellectual prowess and artistic skill, leaving us captivated by its beauty while pondering its profound message.
