...I thought you might like to know what the elusive author looked like, so here is the only known portrait of him courtesy of Joe Wäges.

Here's an article in French about the de Turckheim collection by Antoine Faivre:

And here's an interview with Joe (in English) about his researches into the Bavarian Illuminati:

Thanks once again to Joe for allowing us to use the image, and thanks to Adam for acting as intermediary.Attached Image (viewed 408 times):
