The seven wonders of the world
Seven circular emblems branch from a central stem, each joining a different image or geometric design with a planetary or metal label. The History of Magic captions the whole composition as the Seven Wonders of the World. This is Lévi’s symbolic grouping, whose metal names and planet signs distinguish it from a view of seven architectural monuments.
