EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intricate astrological diagram of a comet that made its appearance in Rome during the Virgo season. The comet remained visible until November 1680, leaving a lasting impression on the people of that era. The engraving, created by an anonymous Italian artist from the 17th century, is now housed in Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. It depicts the celestial phenomenon with great detail and precision. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are drawn to various elements within it. The tail of the comet stretches across the sky like a luminous beam, illuminating everything in its path. Surrounding it are signs representing different zodiac constellations such as Cancer and Libra. The religious significance attributed to comets throughout history is evident here as well. The presence of eggs symbolizes new beginnings and rebirth while stars represent divine guidance and protection. This astrological diagram not only captures our imagination but also serves as a reminder of humanity's fascination with both astrology and astronomy. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people looked up at the night sky in awe and sought meaning within its vastness. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this historical gem for all to appreciate – a testament to their commitment to sharing fine art with audiences worldwide.
