We haven't quite had our fill of #chocolate yet @RHSLibraries. This hand-coloured engraving shows Theobroma cacao, the seeds of which (cocoa beans) are used to make chocolate. This is just 1 of 1186 images that appear in Ferdinand Bernhard Vietz's Icones plantarum [615.3 Vie].
Knight, Death and the Devil (German: Ritter, Tod und Teufel) is a large 1513 engraving by the German artist Albrecht Dürer, one of the three Meisterstiche (master prints) completed during a period when he almost ceased to work in paint or woodcuts to focus on engravings.
Some amazing therianthropic fallen angels being cast down by St Michael in this 1580s engraving. Astonishing how widespread in time and geography are the depictions of gods, demons and others as human merged (usually in the head) with animals

Thrilled to do this tho.
