About this work
This engraved diagram presents the Ptolemaic model of the heavens as concentric circles, with the Earth at the center and smaller epicycle and eccentric circles inset along the planetary orbits. Ornate scrolled cartouches frame the upper corners and a lower smaller diagram, and Latin inscriptions label the spheres and the fixed stars.
