Its outer band is closely lettered in Latin and Hebrew, with the heading Naturam nosce (know nature) at the top.

The plate is one of the large circular engravings of Heinrich Khunrath's Amphitheatrum sapientiae aeternae.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: engraving, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeinrich Khunrath (about 1560–1605) was a German physician and alchemist from Leipzig who took his medical doctorate at Basel in 1588 and practised in Hamburg, Dresden and Bohemia. His Amphitheatrum Sapientiae Aeternae (Amphitheatre of Eternal Wisdom), first printed in 1595 and enlarged after his death in 1609, joins alchemy, Christian Kabbalah and prayer. Its large circular engravings — the alchemist kneeling in his laboratory-oratory, the cosmic Rebis, the Kabbalistic rose — are among the most celebrated images of Renaissance esotericism. Copies are held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Wellcome Collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach print is made to our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/archival-museum-standards\"\u003eArchival Museum Standards\u003c\/a\u003e: a 12-ink giclée, printed to order.
