About this work
An 1851 hand-coloured print by John Emslie titled The Theory of the Seasons and Sign of the Zodiac. It shows the Earth in four positions around an elliptical ecliptic path encircling a central sun, with each globe marked by its continents and labelled with the spring equinox, summer solstice, autumnal equinox and winter solstice. The outer ring is divided into the twelve signs of the zodiac, each illustrated with a small figure, and printed explanatory text fills the margins.
