EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "The Constellations (Plate X), 1822" is a true gem from the Historical Graphica Collection. Created by Alexander Jamieson and published in London during the early 19th century, this astrological masterpiece takes us on a celestial journey through time. Intricately detailed and beautifully coloured, this illustration showcases several constellations that have fascinated astronomers for centuries. Among them are Aquila et Antinous, Scutum Sobieski, Taurus Poniatowski, Sagitta, Valpecula et Anser, and Delphinus. Each constellation tells its own unique story in the vast expanse of the night sky. As we explore this remarkable star chart, we encounter mythical creatures like the majestic eagle soaring alongside Antonius and witness Taurus Poniatowski's powerful presence as the Bull of Poniatowski. The delicate beauty of Sagitta shines brightly while Valpecula et Anser adds an element of mystery to our cosmic adventure. And who can resist being enchanted by the playful dance between Delphinus -the dolphin- and his companion? This historical artifact not only serves as a visual delight but also offers valuable insights into ancient beliefs about astrology and astronomy. It reminds us of humanity's enduring fascination with mapping out our universe and seeking meaning among the stars. A testament to both scientific curiosity and artistic skill, "The Constellations (Plate X)" invites us to gaze upon these celestial wonders with awe-struck
