Historiæ aliquot transmutationis metallicae ... pro defensione alchymiae contra hostium rabiem : adiecta est ... Raymundi Lullii vita, & alia quædam
Historiae aliquot transmutationis metallicae is a 1604 alchemical treatise by Theobaldus van Hoghelande, published by Bernardus Gualtherius and held in the C.G. Jung library, defending alchemy against its critics in Latin. The single picture is a printed ornament of a wheel with eight spokes, a central boss, and a flaming or spiked rim, set on a rectangular base with a chain, above a line of Latin type; a designer might take from it the Renaissance emblematic woodcut style, with its radiating geometry and symbolic device.
