Description
1700s Scrapbook Engravings Astrology Zodiac EGYPT Music Wicker Man Occult Esoteric
A rare and entirely unique family scrapbook! This tome is filled with cutouts of engravings from 18th, 19th, and 20th-centuries, many in the style of 16th-century masters! The engravings and subsequent handwritten commentaries are on a wide variety of topics from birds and animals, gardening, artwork and sculptures, music, Old Testament scenes (including the temple of Jerusalem), and even newspaper photographs of ancient Egyptian ruins and antiquities. Oddly, these all seem to be arranged in relation to each month of the calendar year. Though, some of the most impressive and curious engravings include those of mythical figures and creatures, astrology, star charts, the zodiac, alchemy, and even wicker man human sacrifice.
