Description
Firstly excuse me if my picture may not be perfect but I've had resize and to compress a lot it because the limits of 512KB on Renderosity.
The tradition links this mysterious object (in english known as "Emerald Tablet") to Egyptian culture, especially related to Thoth and his epic. I read a lot on the topic and some documents make me think that its origin should be related to ancient Sumerian culture, rather the Egyptians.
So my work is a artistic interpretation of this idea. I hope you enjoy it.

Wonderful work Whylma,it's a shame we have to wait a whole year for each posting on Rendo but it's worth it, and I do keep up on your websight.+++++
Excellent. Wonderful and interesting topic as well. Beautifully done.
I enjoyed viewing your image. fine job. :)
Erstmal zum Bild, dass sind ja wundervolle Arbeiten die du hier ablieferst. Ganz dickes Lob dafür. Was mich doch gerade schwer wundert, du lädst ja nur immer ein Bild im Jahr hoch und dass fast immer am gleich Tag! Gibt es einen besonderen Grund dafür? Herzliche Grüße aus Berlin York
Great image.
Sensational scene!
excellent image !!
Very good work!!
A beautiful interpretation of the Emerald Tablet. I love the dream-like quality of this image! I had not heard of this tablet before, so I researched it. After reading the original Latin text, I must say it sounds more Gnostic than either Egyptian or Sumerian. But, I think your interpretation is more romantic! It was wonderful to find the source of so many of the fundamental ideas of Alchemy. Thank you for sharing!
magnifique image!!!!!!!!!!
Super character and overall image! Mysterious ...
