The Story Behind the Print
This print reproduces Planisphaerium Arateum, Andreas Cellarius's 1660 chart of the classical constellations in a celestial planisphere. The engraved plate keeps its diagram, Latin lettering, ornamental figures and delicate hand-colored detail.
An outer ring in olive and lilac carries small round medallions of human and animal figures, with pale green orbit paths and planets around a central figure. Scholars with globes stand at the lower corners beside a town wall, and cherubs fly across the blue sky above.
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.
About the Frame
Framed pieces are built to order in solid wood with clear acrylic glazing, dry-mounted artwork, a kraft paper dust cover, and hanging wire. Each piece arrives ready to hang. No mat. Satin Black has a 7/8-inch face and adds 1.25 inches to the total width and height. Slimwood Silver and Slimwood Gold have a 1 1/8-inch face and add 1.75 inches to the total width and height.
The selected size refers to the artwork itself. Framed orders are custom made and ship within 7 to 10 business days, free in the U.S. See our shipping and return policies for framed piece details.
