EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: This print showcases the remarkable Celestial Sphere of Baghdad, created in 1145. A true testament to ancient astronomy and navigation, the celestial sphere is an abstract representation of the heavens, with Earth at its center. With a stunning golden hue and intricate details, this artifact from the 12th century stands as a symbol of scientific knowledge and artistic craftsmanship. The Celestial Sphere of Baghdad was not only a scientific instrument but also an object of beauty. Its exquisite color and meticulous design make it a treasured piece in the world of art and history. The gold-colored globe serves as a visual representation of our universe's vastness, allowing astronomers to study celestial bodies such as stars, planets, and constellations. Hailing from Iraq's capital city, Baghdad, this celestial sphere carries with it centuries worth of wisdom accumulated by scholars during that era. It represents mankind's relentless pursuit to understand the mysteries beyond our planet. Preserved through time by dedicated individuals like Mike Dixon (CM Dixon), this photograph captures every minute detail of this precious artifact for future generations to appreciate. As we gaze upon this image today, we are reminded both of humanity's quest for knowledge and the timeless beauty found within our universe.
