Planisphère Céleste Donnant Les Divisions Des Étoiles Fixes en Constellations et leurs classifications jusqua’à la 5 ème Grandeur.

This hand colored celestial map of the Stars and Constellations is a steel plate engraving, dating to 1878 by the well regarded French cartographer Migeon. This map depicts the night skies of both the northern and southern hemispheres. Migeon’s Geographie Universelle, published in Paris, is one of the last fine atlases produced in the 19th century. It contains many stylistic elements of early 19th century cartography such as full hand coloring, numerous decorative vignettes, and high quality low acid paper.
