About this work

The image shows a dense night sky with a diffuse band of pale gold light running across the upper half, likely the Milky Way. Numerous bright white streaks, probably meteor trails, cut diagonally downward through the dark field, with a few red and blue points of light scattered among them. This starry sky print by Leon Wyczółkowski is dated 1930.
