This hand-coloured engraving, titled "North Pole, Plate 1 from Globi coelestis in tabulas planas redacti descriptio" takes us back to the enchanting world of celestial cartography in the 17th century. Created by Ignace-Gaston Pardies and published in 1674, this exquisite piece showcases the intricate artistry and scientific curiosity of its time.
