EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Leo constellation, known as Leo the Lion in astrology. The image is part of a series of twelve exquisite marble panels adorning the Bianchinis Meridian Line within Rome's Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli. Created by Francesco Tedeschi in 1702, these panels are strategically positioned on either side of the line at intervals representing 30 degrees longitude. Inspired by Jacobo de Gehn's drawings published in Bayers Uranometria, an influential celestial atlas from 1603, Tedeschi beautifully captured the essence of Leo with intricate detail and precision. This artistic masterpiece introduced a modern method for naming stars and has since become an iconic representation of this astrological sign. Leo, ruled by the Sun and associated with fire elements, spans from July 23 to August 22 on the zodiac calendar. Symbolizing strength, courage, and leadership qualities, those born under this sign are often characterized as confident individuals who possess a natural charisma that draws others towards them. As we gaze upon this stunning depiction of Leo amidst a backdrop filled with stars and heavenly wonders, we are reminded of our connection to both mythology and astronomy. This print serves as a reminder that there is much more to explore beyond our earthly realm – a vast universe waiting to be discovered through constellations like Leo.
