Incisione in rame. Mm 220x310. Finemente dipinta a mano. In alto a sinistra riporta, Plate XXIX, in alto a destra, facing Capricorn, in basso a destra, J. Lodge sculp. e al centro Capricorn scritto.Pubblicata per la prima volta ad Augusta nel 1603, l'Uranometria di Bayer fu uno dei grandi atlanti celesti del XVII secolo. Fu il primo atlante a introdurre l'attuale nomenclatura delle stelle. Una caratteristica importante dell'atlante di Bayer fu l'introduzione di un nuovo sistema di nomenclatura stellare. Bayer assegn� lettere greche alle stelle pi? luminose, generalmente nell'ordine di magnitudine, in modo che la stella luminosa nell'Occhio del Toro diventasse alfa Tauri (e la stella pi? luminosa nel Centauro diventasse la nostra familiare alfa Centauri). Le carte di Bayer sono raramente offerte separatamente sul mercato. Il nostro esemplare � tratto da un'edizione inglese, presumibilmente di fine '600, inizio '700. Bell'esemplare. Nr.cat: Cod 7994.

Store Description

Libreria Antiquaria Perini was founded in Como in 1968 by Carlo and Ruth Perini, who moved to Verona in 1970 and in 1972 based the gallery in via Sciesa 11. It's now ruled by Alberto and Marcus Perini, the second generation in this family-business, with the help of Marcus' wife Antonella. We published 50 catalogues of antique and rare books, maps, decorative prints and old masters. We recently increased our inventory and interests opening a window on the modern market of contemporary masters and vintage posters.
