The creature's body is studded with small stars. Spiral clouds of smoke boil up over rocks at left, and beyond the man a castle stands on a wooded hill under a sky of streaked cloud.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatthäus Merian the Elder (1593–1650) was a Swiss-born engraver and publisher who settled in Frankfurt, where he ran one of the great illustrated-book houses of the seventeenth century. He engraved the emblem plates of Michael Maier's Atalanta Fugiens (1618), city views across Europe and illustrated Bibles. His firm, carried on by his heirs, published the Musaeum Hermeticum (1678), an anthology of alchemical treatises whose engraved title page and Lambsprinck emblems are among the best-known alchemical images. His daughter was the naturalist and artist Maria Sibylla Merian.\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.
