Description
Striking star chart of Aries and surrounding constellations, marvelously engraved and delicately colored. Shows the featured constellation in color with neighboring stars and constellations without color.
Jamieson's work is one of the finest of its kind in the early 19th century. Alexander Jamieson published 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. It is one of the most decorative and sought after of 19th Century English Celestial Atlases. This example is in especially fine condition, on thick paper.
