Solis circa orbem Terrarum spiralis revolutio. Shows the spiral orbit traced by the Sun, as seen from the Earth. The celestial circles and the constellations of the zodiac (colored ring) are also shown. Illustration by Andreas Cellarius (1596-1665) a Dutch-German cartographer, best known for his Harmonia Macrocosmica of 1660, a major star atlas. The first part of the atlas contains copper plate prints depicting the world systems of Ptolemy, Copernicus, and Tycho Brahe. At the end are star maps of the classical and further constellations, the latter ones as introduced by Julius Schiller in his Coelum stellatum christianum of 1627.
