En garde! ⚔️ These drawings of swords are from a magical text attributed to King Solomon. The work describes a method of summoning and commanding angels, each represented by a planet, by drawing pentacles and placing sacred objects. The manuscript’s unusual small, horizontal format may be due to the esoteric or clandestine nature of the text.

Clavicula Salomonis, Les clavicules de Salomon [France, ca. 1700?]

Call number: Ms. Codex 1054

Facsimile: http://ow.ly/ZGH930h3xlF
