The Location of the Earth - Star Atlas Mural
Bring history, astronomy and artistry to life on any plain wall with The Location of the Earth mural.
Discover the Earth’s place in the cosmos with The Location of the Earth, an extraordinary mural from Andreas Cellarius’ Atlas Coelestis.
This 17th-century plate, titled Sitvs Terre Circvlis Coelestibvs Circvn Datae, maps the position of the Earth within the celestial spheres, combining meticulous astronomical observation with elegant, ornate illustration. Its intricate lines and harmonious composition evoke both the precision of early science and the artistry of classical cartography.
Reimagined as a wallpaper mural and brought to Wallsauce through the British Library, this piece brings historical astronomical knowledge into a striking contemporary interior. Ideal for studies, bedrooms, libraries or sophisticated commercial spaces, it commands attention while inspiring reflection on our planet’s place in the universe.
More than a decorative feature, The Location of the Earth engages curiosity and conversation, celebrating the depth and complexity of early modern astronomy.
