The Mirror of Magic by Kurt Seligmann
Publication: 1948 Pantheon Books First Edition

Seligmann offers the reader a vivid picture of the most typical religio-magical beliefs from ancient Persia and Mesopotamia to Europe in the Eighteenth Century. Kurt Seligmann (1900–1962) was a Swiss born American Surrealist artist, who was known as a serious student of the occult, and for his bizarre and grotesque images. He is said to have died of an apparently accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound in 1962.
