An Alchemist in His Study - 5e2b78ce896fce4726927b815fc5bf22 (page 3)
Summary
A gray-bearded scholar in a red cap writes at his desk with a quill. Scattered in front of him are fabric-covered ceramic jars, a celestial globe, glass jars stoppered with twists, and a pipe. Illumination floods the scene from a window at the left. From the ceiling hangs three taxidermy creatures, a sword, and a birdcage entwined with vine and a bird sitting atop the cage. In the background, an assistant attends a furnace.
