EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Emblema XLIX Infans Philosophicus tres agnoscit" transports us to a world of profound symbolism and intellectual exploration. The image, etched by Michael Maier and Matthaeus Merian in 1687, is part of their masterpiece "Secretioris naturae secretorum scrutinium chymicum". In this particular emblem, we witness the emergence of a young philosopher who recognizes three fathers, akin to Orion's constellation. The intricate copper engravings beautifully depict this scene, meticulously crafted to engage both our eyes and intellect. The genius behind these emblems lies in their ability to convey profound ideas through visual storytelling. Each symbol holds significance as it intertwines with thought-provoking sentiments and epigrams that accompany them on the page. As we delve into this artwork on page 145, we are invited into a realm where nature's secrets are unveiled through alchemical scrutiny. It is an invitation to explore the depths of knowledge with acute observation and deep contemplation. While the origins or purpose of this specific print remain unknown beyond its inclusion in the Liszt Collection, its beauty transcends any commercial use. Instead, it serves as a testament to humanity's eternal quest for wisdom and understanding—a timeless reminder that even infants can recognize the importance of philosophical inquiry just like they do constellations in the night sky.
