About this clipart

This black-and-white woodcut-style diagram represents a transitional cosmological model from the late Renaissance, blending Ptolemaic structure with emerging heliocentric ideas-though Earth remains implicitly central. The Sun (Sol) is depicted as a radiant face at the core, encircled by concentric orbits labeled “Cir: Albus” (white circle), “Cir: Fusus” (spindle circle), and “Torus Circul2 Albus,” while celestial terms like “SEPTENTRIO” (North) and “MERIDIES” (South) orient the viewer. Ornate Baroque scrollwork frames the composition, reflecting the era’s fusion of science, art, and theology.
Used in academic articles, museum digital exhibits, or history-of-science websites to illustrate pre-Copernican or syncretic cosmological models; targets researchers, educators, and enthusiasts seeking primary-source visualizations of early modern astronomy.
