Neu eingerichtetes Lexicon medico-chymicum oder chymisches Lexicon ...
A 1711 German medical-chemical lexicon by Christoph von Hellwig, published by the heirs of Johann Christoph Stössel and drawn from the library of C.G. Jung. The first picture is a bookplate: a heraldic shield with a star, cross and grapevine beneath a winged angel and the motto 'vocatus atque non vocatus deus aderit', rendered in yellow, grey and black. The second is an engraving of a seated alchemist with a book, a basket of vessels and a mortar on a tiled floor, which suggests scholarly, occult interior scenes for period-style design work.
