Urania's Mirror: Virgo - UM 011
Urania’s Mirror is a charming and visually attractive aid for observing the night sky. Composed of 32 cards engraved by Sydney Hall and published in 1824/5, Urania’s Mirror documented 79 constellations in the night sky. The cards themselves had tiny holes punched in them so when held up to the light they show the outline of the constellation. We offer a selection of images drawn from the first and second edition. The 5 x 7 card is blank inside and comes with an accompanying envelope - shipping is free.
