EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print titled "ALCHEMIC SKY DRAGON" transports us back to the Renaissance era, specifically Vienna in 1534. The intricate artwork showcases a mythical creature known as the Alchemic Sky Dragon, believed to possess immense power over celestial bodies. In this mesmerizing depiction, we witness the dragon's ability to devour and regenerate both the sun and moon daily. The symbolism behind this artwork is profound. The dragon represents the eternal nature of Materia prima, an alchemical concept referring to the fundamental substance from which all matter originates. By consuming and rebirthing these celestial entities each day, the Alchemic Sky Dragon embodies perpetual transformation and renewal. Crafted by Hanns Singriener for his book Voegelin Praktik, this woodcut exemplifies not only artistic skill but also a deep understanding of alchemy, astronomy, and mythological beliefs prevalent during that time. Singriener's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; from the dragon's fierce expression to its intertwining with a lion symbolizing strength and nobility. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece today, it serves as a reminder of humanity's fascination with unlocking secrets of nature through occult practices such as alchemy. It invites us into a world where science intertwined with mysticism in pursuit of knowledge beyond conventional boundaries.
