EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Comet discovered and observed by Johannes Hevelius from 3rd February to 28th March". The image, taken by the renowned Polish astronomer himself, transports us back to the year 1661 in Gdansk. In this intricate engraving, Hevelius skillfully captures the celestial beauty of the comet against a backdrop of constellations. His meticulous attention to detail is evident as he maps out the wings of an eagle and a dolphin, symbolizing both strength and grace. The presence of these creatures adds a sense of wonder and mystique to the composition. As we explore further, our eyes are drawn to an arrow pointing towards Delphinus, one of the many constellations depicted in this celestial map. Surrounding it are other zodiac signs such as Aquila, representing power and authority. Hevelius' expertise in astronomy shines through his creation; his passion for understanding the universe is palpable. This print not only serves as a historical record but also reminds us of humanity's eternal curiosity about what lies beyond our world. Displayed at Musee de L Observatoire in Paris, France, this remarkable piece allows us to appreciate Hevelius' significant contributions as both an astronomer and mayor of Gdansk. It stands as a testament to his dedication in unraveling the mysteries that lie within our vast cosmos.
