Theatrum chemicum is a 1613 alchemical anthology printed at Strasbourg by Lazarus Zetzner, gathering treatises on chemistry and the philosophers' stone for students of chemical medicine. Its pictures are woodcut emblems: a ring of alchemical symbols and mottoes, a heraldic sun-and-crescent crest, a seven-pointed star diagram with letters, and a cloud scene of angels and a bird, offering a designer dense, symmetrical roundel and cartouche layouts with a strong occult flavour.
