$3500.00

3 framed prints circa 1682 - 1780

Each measures 3 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches
Some of the most beautiful works of art ever created.

Jakob Böhme (probably April 24, 1575v– November 17, 1624) was a German Christian mystic and theologian. He is considered an original thinker within the Lutheran tradition, and his first book, commonly known as Aurora, caused a great scandal.


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jakob_B%C3%B6hme


“Bohme had a number of mystical experiences throughout his youth, culminating in a vision in 1600 as one day he focused his attention onto the exquisite beauty of a beam of sunlight reflected in a pewter dish. He believed this vision revealed to him the spiritual structure of the world, as well as the relationship between God and man, and good and evil.”
