Aurora consurgens
The ''Aurora consurgens'' is an alchemical treatise of the 15th century famous for the rich illuminations that accompany it. While the text was in the past sometimes attributed to Thomas Aquinas, its author is now more commonly referred to as "Pseudo-Aquinas".
==Overview==
''Aurora consurgens'' is a commentary on the Latin translation of ''Silvery Waters'' by Senior Zadith (Ibn Umayl). Unusual for a work of this type, the text is accompanied by about thirty-seven fine miniatures in watercolour. The illustrations are allegorical representations of alchemical elements depicted in human or animal form. For example, mercury is depicted as a serpent; gold as the Sun and silver as the Moon.〔Obrist, Barbara. ("Visualization in Medieval Alchemy" ). ''International Journal for Philosophy of Chemistry''.〕 These illustrations incorporate some of the earliest Greek alchemical symbols known, found in the ''Authentic Memoirs'' of Zosimos of Panopolis.
