EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "Ms E-7 fol. 26b The Constellations of the Dog and the Keel" from "The Wonders of the Creation and the Curiosities of Existence" by Zakariya ibn Muhammad al-Qazwini. Created by an Islamic School in the 14th century, this gouache on paper masterpiece measures 0.40 x 0.29 cm and is currently housed at the Institute of Oriental Studies in St. Petersburg, Russia. Intriguingly detailed, this illustration depicts both celestial and maritime elements beautifully intertwined. A turbaned figure can be seen kneeling beside a text-filled manuscript, symbolizing knowledge and wisdom as they observe two prominent constellations - Canis Major (the Dog) and Carina (the Keel). These constellations hold great significance in astrology and astronomy. Zakariya al-Qazwini, a Persian physician, cosmographer, astronomer, and geographer who resided in Baghdad during his lifetime from 1203 to 1283 AD. , authored "Les Merveilles de la creation et curiosites de l existence" a popular cosmography written in Arabic that was later translated into Turkish and Persian languages. This remarkable artwork not only reflects Al-Qazwini's deep understanding of celestial bodies but also serves as a testament to his contribution to scientific knowledge during medieval times. Its intricate details invite viewers to explore ancient perspectives on zodiac
