[Piscis Austrinus] (Stars Heightened in Gold)

A magnificent full-color example of Bayer's celestial chart of Piscis Austrinus, with the stars heightened in gold. Piscis Austrinus is the being that swallows the water poured by Aquarius and is an important constellation in several ancient civilizations. A recurring tale in Mediterranean cultures tells of the fish saving a heroine, in Egyptian mythology this is Isis. The two fish in Pisces are sometimes taken to be the offspring of this Piscis Austrinus.
