Description

Eliphas Levi, in his Dogme et Rituel de la Haute Magie (p 364 / p 399 in the English translation as Transcendental Magic), represents the seven seals together, effectively 'sealing' the whole content of the Apocalypse (Greek for 'Revelation'). Rudolf Steiner's diagrammatic seals representations, as painted by Clara Rettich in 1911, are probably the best known amongst but few. These, to be sure, are clearly based on Eliphas Levi's own renditions.

Rudolf Steiner's Sketches for seven "Apocalyptic Seals," 1907, pastels (executed in oil on canvas by Clara Rettich in 1907 and in 1911; Steiner's sketches for the first, fifth, and sixth seals have not survived).
