Details
This antique map of the solar system and celestial sphere, by Johann Doppelmayr, is fascinating wall art for star gazers and students of the history of science. This astronomical map was originally printed in 1742 as "Systema Solare et Planetarium." My fine art reproduction is printed in archival inks on Epson ultra-premium luster paper for lasting beauty.
Sizes
Map art prints are available in four different sizes: 8 x 10 inches, A4 (8.3 x 11.7 inches), 11 x 14 inches, and A3 (11.7 x 16.5 inches). They are shipped flat in a rigid mailer. Your art print arrives ready to frame and hang on your wall!
Larger prints offer better legibility of the map labels and text than smaller prints. In addition, the different length-to-width ratios of the various sizes of prints offered here result in slightly different crops of the artwork: An A3 print will look slightly different than a 16 x 20 inch print.
Please note
This is a reproduction of a map that is hundreds of years old, and the image shows discoloration, foxing, and occasionally other damage to the original paper. The borders of the map may not be perfectly rectangular or parallel with each other. These add to the charm and antique appearance of your print.
