Alchemical Symbolism in the VMS

[Paris]

   
bi3mw, I can suggest you the following book :

Hieroglyphica oder Denkbilder der alten Völker.
The author is Romeyn de Hooghe (1645 - 1708)
It's a german book. So it's easy for you, not for me.

There are several drawings in this book.
The most approaching to your drawing is on page 130.

Some informations about this image :
On the very bottom, there is Chronos surrounded by a snake (Ouroboros).
On the left side, there is Pan. Next to him, Saturn (with a sickle in his left hand). Next to him an Egyptian. It's possibly Hermes-Thot. I don't know why he's got an egg in his mouth.


Between Pan and Saturn, you can see a cave with children who symbolize the four elements.
