The Story Behind the Print
This print reproduces Coeli Stellati Christiani Haemisphaerium Prius, Andreas Cellarius's 1660 chart of a Christianized celestial hemisphere. The engraved plate keeps its diagram, Latin lettering, ornamental figures and delicate hand-colored detail.
Robed figures in red, blue, green and gold fill the circular field in place of the classical constellations, set against a pale ground. Cherubs and banners fill the corners, and two small circular star charts sit at the lower left and right.
Printed on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper using fade-resistant giclée printing with archival inks, preserving the detail and character of the original for generations.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece — the print will always be richer.
