Jamieson's work is one of the finest of it's kind in the early 19th century. Alexander Jamieson's A Celestial Atlas Comprising A System Display of the Heavens… published in London by G & W.B Wittaker, T. Caddell, and N. Hailes, in 1822, is one of the most decorative and sought after of 19th Century English Celestial Atlases.
