A late nineteenth-century Paris study of the alchemist Nicolas Flamel, written by Albert Poisson and published by the Bibliothèque Chacornac in 1893 for readers of occult and alchemical history. Its illustrations are rotated scans of hieroglyphic emblem plates, a view of a Paris building, and a zodiac roundel with a flask in a triangle, showing dense engraved linework with zodiac signs, Latin mottoes and symbolic geometry a designer could draw on for esoteric or antique-styled ornament.
