About this title: "The Hermetic Museum" takes its readers on a magical mystery tour spanning an arc from the mediaeval cosmogram and images of Christian mysticism, through the fascinating world of alchemy to the art of the Romantic era. The enigmatic hieroglyphs of cabbalists, Rosicrucians and freemasons are shown to be closely linked with the early scientific illustrations in the fields of medicine, chemistry, optics and colour theory.

"This is the unabridged version that every one should track down right away. Simply gorgeous, and of the quality one expects from Taschen when they're on top of their game."
"This book is over 700 pages, and no, I have not read them all. It is mainly pictures however, and I have dipped into it widely. A good reference work on the art associated with alchemy and (to the degree it is possible) with mysticism."
