The Story Behind the Print
Andreas Cellarius Haemisphaeria Sphaerarum Rectae et Obliquae 1660
This archival art print reproduces Haemisphaeria Sphaerarum Rectae et Obliquae, Andreas Cellarius's 1660 chart of the geometry of right and oblique celestial spheres. The complete engraved composition retains its intricate diagram, Latin lettering, ornamental figures and restrained hand-colored detail.
The broad landscape format and finely layered linework give the chart a stately presence in a study, library or collected gallery wall. Its warm ivory ground is shared across this Cellarius series so several plates can hang together with consistent scale and borders.
Premium Archival Quality
Printed to order with archival inks on heavyweight 325gsm museum-grade matte paper. The complete plate is centered on a continuous warm ivory background, with consistent artwork scale and balanced borders across the series.
Available Presentations
Choose Print Only or a professionally framed version in Satin Black, Slimwood Silver or Slimwood Gold. Available artwork sizes are 16 x 12, 24 x 18 and 32 x 24 inches. Framed options have no mat and arrive ready to hang. Sizes refer to the paper artwork; the frame adds to the outside dimensions. Display props are not included.
A Thoughtful Gift
A considered gift for astronomers, stargazers, science-history readers, map collectors and admirers of seventeenth-century celestial art.

Customer notes
From our collectors
“Love my hometown Santa Monica map and I can’t wait to get it framed! Would have done it through Justin but due to Covid-19 he didn’t know when that would be. So I’ll just get it done myself. Can’t wait to hang it-know exactly where it will go! Justin was kind and answered my questions in a very timely manner. Thank you again!”
“So thrilled with my purchase! The map and frame turned out beautifully, and Justin was incredible to work with. He was communicative and helpful when I needed my item shipped as soon as possible/expedited. I even had to switch shipping addresses after my order was already processed, and they switched it with no problem. Will definitely be making another purchase from Archive! Thanks Justin!”
