Nancy, Callot, Jacques, Title page with wise men around a celestial globe, In a paradisiacal setting, five gentlemen stand around an open celestial globe, which is placed on a pedestal with the biblical text 'mundum tradidit disputationi eorum'. They each represent a way of explaining creation. For example, the man with the hourglass on which a flame burns represents the explanation based on eternal fire. The man with the book on which a crown lies from which a snake emerges, represents the astrological or alchemical way of explaining. The other three represent the explanation using numbers (front left), the Kabbalistic explanation (front right) and the geometric explanation (two men from the right)., print, prints, height 141 mm, width 95 mm, French, 1592-08-21 - 1635-03-24, print maker, printmaker, 1630 - 1630, second quarter 17th century, paper, etching
