About This Design

Urania's Mirror, Vintage Astronomy Celestial Map Postcard

Urania's Mirror, Vintage Astronomy Celestial Map Postcard

Vintage illustration astronomy and antique celestial image featuring three constellations, Gloria Federici, Andromeda and Triangula. Gloria Frederica was a constellation created by Johann Bode in 1787 to honour Frederick the Great, the king of Prussia who had died in the previous year. It was located in a region between the constellations Cepheus, Andromeda, Cassiopeia and Cygnus. It is no longer in use. Andromeda is a constellation in the northern sky named after Andromeda, the princess in the Greek legend of Perseus who was chained to a rock to be eaten by sea monster Cetus. It is sometimes called "the Chained Lady" or "the Chained Woman". It has also been called Persea (Perseus's wife) or Cepheis (Cepheus's daughter). The Andromeda Galaxy is named after the constellation, as it appears within its boundaries. Triangulum (Latin for triangle) is a small constellation in the northern sky. Its name derives from its three brightest stars, of third and fourth magnitude, which form a nearly-isosceles long and narrow triangle. Triangulum was one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd century astronomer Ptolemy, and remains one of the 88 modern constellations.

Exactly what I wanted, it is very difficult to acquire Vintage Australiana items. I am so please that I ordered 8 I will be using them for my scrap booking and Junk Journaling. Gorgeous, Zazzle produced and delivered exactly what I wanted.

Way better quality than I ever expected. I love the colours, font and quality of the card. I'm so pleased I found Zazzle as it is near impossible to purchase Vintage or Retro Australian memorabilia online. I chose this design when I purchased them. They are perfect for my projects. I was very specific about what I wanted. I know where to come now when I need to order similar items.

Perfect for the occasion I was using it for. I was able to delete the lines so I could put in more wording. Had an envelope so the address side wasn't necessary. Print quality and paper quality lovely.
