Celestial globe
Vincenzo Coronelli1696
Biblioteca Teresiana
Mantova, Italy
The second pair of globes by Coronelli is smaller than the first. Nothing however is lost in the descriptions and lines that form constellations and trace continents. Both globes are placed on an interesting wooden structure, which of course is Atlas, who is bending under the weight of the sphere he is condemned to bear.
