The Green Lion devouring the Sun — vitriol dissolving gold, the prima materia consuming the solar principle at the beginning of the Great Work. One of the most arresting images in alchemical iconography: the process of purification as an act of apparent destruction. Source: Viridarium Chymicum, 1624. Catalog No. 3507.
