EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate artwork titled "Hand with Celestial Sphere" created by Crispin I de Passe in the early 17th century. The piece, measuring 9.5x9.5 cm, is part of The Devonshire Collections at Chatsworth and was reproduced with permission from the Chatsworth Settlement Trustees. In this drawing from an album of emblems and book illustrations, we are presented with a thought-provoking scene that possibly represents Christ and Beelzebub. A circular armillary sphere floats within a cloudy landscape as an angelic figure reaches out to hold it in their hand. The celestial sphere symbolizes knowledge of the heavens while clouds envelop the scene, creating an ethereal atmosphere. The artist's skillful use of pen and brown ink with grey and brown washes adds depth and dimension to this religious emblem. With meticulous detail, De Passe captures both divine beauty and spiritual conflict through his depiction of angels, devilish figures, rainbows, orbs, and more. This intriguing composition not only explores Christian themes but also delves into meteorology and science as it incorporates elements such as weather patterns and climate studies within its symbolism. Overall, this remarkable artwork invites viewers to contemplate profound questions about faith, spirituality, nature's mysteries, human existence, and our place in the universe.
