O laboratório do alquimista, após Bruegel

Uma gravura mostra um alquimista diante de uma bancada num laboratório cheio de frascos, alambiques e vasilhas, enquanto uma mulher e crianças aparecem numa porta. No canto superior direito, uma família numa aldeia coberta de neve se aproxima de um asilo para pobres. Versos latinos inscritos percorrem a borda inferior.
