There are several versions of the manuscript and depending on the library, the number, order and certain details of the figures differ. The Zurich manuscript is the oldest. We also recovered the additional figures present in the Leiden manuscripts ( Vossiani Chemici F. 29. Glasgow Ferguson 6 figures are available PSI
To the extent that the text accompanying the images is an anthology of biblical and alchemical texts which are not necessarily linked to the images, we will not reproduce it here, especially since the French translation is not a priori free from right.




































































Quote of the Day
“from the beginning to the end of the work a long time is required, although some Philosophers do say, the Stone may be made in one day, and others in one month: But know that they speak Enigmatically, and that their words ought not thus to be understood. Nevertheless I say with Scotus that the Stone or perfect work may be made in one year.”
