Matthäus Merian’s Etchings for Atalanta fugiens - Paul Ferguson - 11-09-2023
by Michael Gaudio
"Michael Maier’s Atalanta fugiens (1618) offers a heady mix of arcane alchemical principles, humanist literary references, and contrapuntal fugues, but it is the volume’s striking copperplate etchings that are most likely to retain a vivid presence in the reader’s imagination long after the book is closed."
