Through a Glass Darkly: The Visual Culture of Alchemy
May 28, 2022, 9:30 am

The pre-modern science and art of alchemy is famous for its vivid, often bizarre imagery. Alchemical images often represent ingredients and processes allegorically, suggesting analogies with other aspects of creation: from human generation and reproduction to the motion of heavenly bodies. Alchemists also used descriptive and diagrammatic…
