EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Emblema XXX Sol indiget Luna ut gallus gallina" is a remarkable piece of art from the Liszt Collection. Created by Michaelis Majeri, it is part of his renowned work "Secretioris naturae secretorum scrutinium chymicum: per oculis et intellectui accurate accommodata". The intricate etching, skillfully executed by Matthaeus Merian in 1687, beautifully captures Emblem 30 on page 88. The image portrays a fascinating allegorical scene where the sun (Sol) relies on the moon (Luna) just as much as the rooster (gallus) depends on the hen (gallina). Majeri's emblemata are ingeniously depicted through copper engravings, accompanied by thought-provoking sentiments and erudite epigrammata that enhance its profound meaning. This particular artwork showcases Majeri's deep understanding of nature's secrets and his ability to convey them visually. The attention to detail in this print is astounding; every line and curve meticulously engraved with precision. It serves as a testament to both Majeri's artistic talent and his extensive knowledge of alchemy. As you gaze upon this print, allow yourself to be captivated by its symbolism and hidden meanings. Let your imagination wander through the realms of nature's mysteries while appreciating the exquisite craftsmanship that brings these emblems to life. This print truly exemplifies why Michaelis Majeri remains one of history
