Stanislas Klossowski De Rola’s illustrated paperback, The Golden Game Alchemical Engravings, invites readers into the secretive world where art, mysticism and early science intertwine. First published by Thames & Hudson in 1998, this generously sized 320-page visual textbook deciphers centuries of occult symbolism for young-adult and adult seekers alike.

Every chapter pairs crisp commentary with rare alchemical engravings, making the volume a practical reference for art history, cultural studies and New Age spirituality shelves. The author’s personalised touches—present in this copy—add an intimate layer for collectors who value provenance as much as content.

The book remains in good, gently-read condition: page tops show light yellowing typical of its era, and a small sticker rests on the inside front paper, both noted for accuracy. A solid, affordable addition for anyone curating a library of esoterica, world history or illustrated classics without the premium price of a pristine edition.
