EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Copernicus in Rome" takes us back to the year 1879, when it was featured in the book "La ciencia y sus hombres". The image showcases a private collection of historical artifacts that tell the story of Nicolaus Copernicus, one of history's most influential astronomers. In this particular scene, we see an armillary sphere known as an armil or armilla. This intricate instrument was used by Copernicus and other astronomers to study celestial bodies and understand their movements within the celestial sphere. Surrounding the armillary sphere are various objects such as books, globes, and even a harmonia macrocosmica. The fine art lithograph captures not only the beauty of these scientific tools but also pays homage to Copernicus himself. His Erdapfel (a model representing Earth) is prominently displayed on a pedestal nearby, reminding us of his groundbreaking heliocentric theory that challenged traditional beliefs about our place in the universe. This photograph transports us back in time and allows us to appreciate both the artistic design and scientific significance behind these objects. It serves as a reminder of how far humanity has come in understanding our world and beyond.
