This is a detailed black and white engraving, likely from an alchemical or philosophical text. The central image features a large, muscular lion standing on its hind legs, supporting a celestial sphere on its back. The sphere is adorned with various symbols representing planets, constellations, and alchemical elements. Around the lion and sphere is a circular band with letters and symbols, resembling an astronomical chart or a zodiac. The letters and symbols are arranged in a complex pattern, possibly representing degrees or phases. Above the sphere, the word "Z. ANFANG. EXALTATION." is written in a decorative font. Below the lion, the word "CABALA" is prominently displayed within an ornate, scroll-like border. In the corners of the image, the words "PHILOSOPHI," "ASTRONOMI," "ALCHIMI," and "VIRTUTES" are written, suggesting the four corners represent different fields of study. The engraving is highly detailed, with intricate shading and line work. It appears to be a symbolic representation of alchemical or philosophical concepts, possibly related to the transformation of matter or the pursuit of knowledge. The overall style is reminiscent of Renaissance or Baroque art, with a focus on symbolism and allegory.
