Celestial Map 1730

This beautifully hand colored celestial map from 1730 shows the Zodiacal constellations and the three different Solar system hypothesis respectively by ptolemy, copernicus and Tycho. The map also shows two sketches in the bottom corners that depict the illumination of the Moon and the Earth by the Sun. The text is in Latin.

Our Map Reproductions are handmade in our Los Angeles studio using heavyweight 23 mil Epson Exhibition Satin Canvas. This elegantly textured canvas features a semi-gloss satin surface that is enhanced with protective elastic polymers. Decorative wood is assembled on the top and bottom, with two eye-hooks mounted on the top piece. We also supply a jute rope twine that can be attached between the two eye-hooks to give the map that old pull down map feel.

During the restoration process, we pay great attention to matching the colors to the original maps. Please note that your computer screen might display slightly different colors than our professionally calibrated monitors.
