“Wow! This is the second print I've purchased from Paola and couldn't be happier with the quality! It's printed on nice thick paper and the colors are really vibrant. I bought it as a gift and the recipient loves it. The packaging was nice as well - it came rolled up so it was protected during shipping but unrolled easily for the frame. Thank you!!”

The Story Behind the Print
Andreas Cellarius Scenographia Systematis Copernicani 1660
This archival art print reproduces Scenographia Systematis Copernicani, Andreas Cellarius's 1660 chart of the Copernican world system. 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.
Color and Detail Note
Screen settings can affect the appearance of printed colors. Fine historic lettering is best appreciated close up. This is a newly made reproduction, not an original antique print.
