“This Dissolution is nothing but a killing of the moist with the dry, in fact
a PUTREFACTION, and consequently turned the MATTER black.”

Plate 19 shows a landscape in the process of rebirth.  The trees have been burnt, but the meadows are sprouting and showing signs of life.  The dark Sun shows the reflection of the land and waterways. 

This is the Nigredo phase, approaching the Veil of Reflection.
