"The constellations of the northern sky, drawn by the hand of the greatest engraver of the Renaissance. A celestial map that is also a total work of art."
Context of the Work
In 1515, Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528) engraved the first printed celestial map in Western history, in collaboration with astronomer Johannes Stabius and mathematician Conrad Heinfogel. Each constellation is represented in its mythological form.
This map fascinated astronomers, navigators, and artists for centuries, marking the moment when science and art came together to represent the cosmos.

Beautiful images deserve beautiful paper
The paper is an uncoated matte 170 gsm. Its surface stays slightly fibrous, the ink sinks in, the light spreads across it. Colors keep their depth, as on the page of a book.
It is eco-friendly paper from sustainably managed forests, and printed as close to you as possible to shorten transport.
Hanging a piece is not the same as seeing it once. It stays there, you find it again in passing, and the day pauses for a second. It is a moment you give yourself, and offer to those who live with you.
