The Moon As Seen Through A Powerful Telescope.
"In the olden times the moon was a goddess". But now, the closest neighbor is now understood as a rocky planet that was indeed a prehistoric "offshoot", split from our planet and orbiting ever since. This articulate engraving for the moon even includes identified landmarks that though alluded to as "seas" or "marshes" were known to be just "hollows or valley". Includes notations for the major peaks as well
Condition is good with some repairs to the old folds and light soiling. Overall image size is approximately 14.5 x 21 (inches)
