Mercury and Virtue

Mercury and Virtue 850 480 V.M. Kwen Khan Khu

I am pleased to bring you, on this occasion, this beautiful artistic work by the Italian Renaissance painter Dosso Dossi (1489-1542). The painting is preserved in the Royal Castle of Wawel, Krakow.

United virtue is stronger, Baro Urbigerus

“Virtus unita fortior” (United virtue is stronger)

“Virtus unita fortior” (United virtue is stronger) 850 480 V.M. Kwen Khan Khu

It is the frontispiece of a book published in 1690 in London and entitled Aphorismi Urbigerani. This engraving takes us back again to the study of the Sacred ARCANUM A.Z.F. and its alchemical concomitances.
