The Story Behind the Print

Andreas Cellarius Theoria Lunae 1660

This archival art print reproduces Theoria Lunae, Andreas Cellarius's 1660 chart of the theory and motion of the Moon. 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.

“Brilliant service. The seller reported a delay in the frame style, a second choice was immediately substituted, (visual choices were made available), and the shipment completed without any problem. He was candid, honest, and thorough. The item is stunning! It is the focal point in the living room,”

This map is the centerpiece that I am feeding off of the decor for the entire retail area. Shipping was right on and actually came earlier than expected within a week! Quality company for sure. Can't wait to order more maps !”
