Globes of the Earth & Heavens

Globes of the Earth & Heavens presents a pair of mounted globes — one charting the continents of the terrestrial world, the other mapping the constellations of the night sky — set among a cluster of classical geometric solids, including a sphere, cone, cylinder, and cube. The engraving reflects the 19th-century tradition of scientific and educational illustration, when geography, astronomy, and geometry were taught side by side as complementary sciences.
