Framed Print of 1662 Schott Demons
XXVI Winged and horned monster resembling Cacus (the giant son of Vulcan), XXVII Winged and clawed monster with a birds clawed foot, XXVIII another winged and horned monster'. Copperplate from Gaspar Schotts Physica Curiosa, sive mirabilia naturae. Gaspar Schott was a Jesuit scholar (1608-1666). He worked with Athanasius Kircher in Rome before returning to Germany in 1655 where he was appointed professor of Mathematics at Augsburg. This work may have been inspired by unfinished elements of Kirchers work and draws together a remarkable array of the real and the imagined. These creatures are considered within the same covers as the Rhinoceros and the Pelican. Most of Shotts images relate to images in Gessner, Topsell and other 16th century authors. Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © This image is Paul D. Stewart 2009. Do not reproduce without permission of the photographer at
