Reprint of Johannes Hevelius's star chart from his highly important Firmamentum Sobiescianum sive Uranographia.
This was one of the 48 constellations described by the 2nd century astronomer Ptolemy and is now one of the 88 modern day constellations.
This was the first star atlas to rival Bayer's Uranometria in accuracy, utility, innovation, and influence.
