Description

Another page from Astronomicum Caesareum (1540), this wheel chart (volvelle) represents the constellations and their position in the zodiac. Like the other 41 full-page illustrations in the volume, this chart makes abstruse technical information more accessible. We loved the delicate image and arranged it so that it floats effortlessly on the transparent Shibui Folder®.
