“I ordered two prints from Paola and it was a pleasure working with her. She went above and beyond by actually tracking down prints for me that she didn't have listed on the site at the time. The prints arrived in pristine condition, were exactly as shown in the photos and great quality. Would recommend to everyone.”

The Story Behind the Print
Alexander Jamieson Cancer Constellation Chart 1822
Cancer appears in Alexander Jamieson's A Celestial Atlas (1822). A hand-colored crab anchors a richly labeled celestial chart. The hand-colored figures, mapped stars, and period lettering give this chart its distinctive character.
The complete historical artwork is centered on a coordinated warm paper field. Consistent outer margins let several charts hang together as a collection.
Premium Archival Quality
Printed to order with archival inks on heavyweight 325gsm museum-grade matte paper.

Customer notes
From our collectors
“Purchased as a Christmas gift for my husband, and he loved it. It was exactly what he wanted. The item shipped fast. The seller was able to get my order to me before Christmas, even though I just ordered a week before. It's a beautiful map, quality item. Would buy from this seller again!”
“Great looking print. Paper was heavy & thick. The aging - spots, runs, etc added authenticity of it being an old chart. We Found a great frame and had it professionally mounted. Just the right size. Wanted to change the size And they were right on it - excellent product & seller. Thx”
