EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Constellations (Plate XXVII) Hydra Continua, Crater, Covus, Centaurus et Lupus" from the renowned celestial atlas by Alexander Jamieson. Published in London in 1822, this hand-coloured engraving represents a remarkable piece of astrological and astronomical history. Intricately detailed and beautifully coloured, the illustration depicts various constellations including Hydra Continua, Crater, Covus, Centaurus et Lupus. Each constellation is meticulously outlined against a backdrop of stars and zodiac signs. This historical map offers a glimpse into the celestial world as perceived during the 19th century. The inclusion of mythical creatures such as centaurs adds an element of enchantment to this astrological chart. The Bull Pricker symbolizes strength and determination while representing Taurus within the zodiacal framework. Meanwhile, Hydra Continua extends its serpentine form across multiple constellations. Alexander Jamieson's Celestial Atlas remains an invaluable resource for astronomers and astrology enthusiasts alike. Its enduring significance lies not only in its scientific accuracy but also in its artistic representation of our cosmic surroundings. This print from Heritage Images allows us to appreciate both the scientific and aesthetic qualities of Jamieson's work. It serves as a reminder that even centuries-old illustrations can continue to inspire wonder and fascination with their timeless beauty.
