Das Valete: uber den Tractat der Arcanorum Basilii Valentini zusammen gesetzten Hauptschluss Puncten dess Liechts der Natur
A 1608 German alchemical treatise, Das Valete, by Hans Christoph Reinhart, printed by Erasmus Hynitzsch for the bookseller Joachim Krusecke, drawn from the C.G. Jung library. The single picture is a printed coat of arms, an eagle with a crown above a shield flanked by scrolling acanthus-like ornament and foliage, suggesting how a designer might borrow heraldic emblems and baroque scrollwork for a crest or seal.
