Um alquimista palestrando sobre o elixir da vida, gravura em madeira, 1852-3

Uma gravura em madeira em preto e branco mostra um alquimista de manto em pé diante de um grande quadro com diagramas, apontando com uma vara enquanto uma multidão de ouvintes sentados e em pé lota um salão abobadado. Vigas, arcos e janelas emolduram a cena, e em primeiro plano um homem barbado inclina-se sobre um livro.
