EDITORS COMMENTS
The print of The four great alchemists from 1652 captures a moment in history where legendary figures such as Al-Jabir, Arnald of Villanova, Rhazes, and Hermes Trismegistes oversee the work being done in a bustling laboratory. Each of these renowned alchemists brings their own unique expertise and knowledge to the table, symbolizing centuries of wisdom and innovation in the field.
Al-Jabir, known as Geber in 14th century Spain, was a pioneer in the study of chemistry and alchemy. Arnald of Villanova, a French figure from the 13th century, made significant contributions to medicine and philosophy. Rhazes, also known as Abu Bakr al-Razi from 9th century Persia, was a prominent physician and philosopher. And lastly, Hermes Trismegistes is a legendary figure who represents ancient wisdom and mystical teachings.
As they look down upon the workers diligently conducting experiments in the laboratory, one can't help but feel inspired by the rich history and tradition that these great minds have left behind. This engraving serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of alchemy and its impact on science and society throughout the ages.
