Just to add, The Collins and Phillips website below points out that Meonia is an anagram for "I am One"

Which makes me think of the Sons of the Law of One who were the philosophical adversaries of the Sons of Belial in Atlantis.

It could be that in the picture there is not two people but one, the older (Dee) rejuvenates himself into the younger (Bacon). The transformation is in one sense from physically aged (base metal ?) into youth and vigor (gold?) but carrying ones knowledge and experience (the wine) into the new container. That brings to mind the biblical expression of putting wine into new or old bottles. The young man on the left holds a ball or something in his right hand. Just a thought.

I am not sure what the ball is, could it be an apple? I attach another copy of the famous engraving 'Lampo Trado' and would point out that you can clearly make out a rose buckle on the right foot of the figure who is meant to represent Francis Bacon, which again ties him into Rosicrucianism.

After quickly re-reading Andrew Collins on the Green Stone, perhaps Bacon is holding an egg, which represents the Philosopher's Egg of the alchemists and the Rosicrucians, a form of the Philosopher's Stone.
