"Tierkreis mit Jupiter und Merkur, vor denen ein Fürst sitzt, rechts unten Phoebus auf dem Sonnenwagen, links oben der Gott der Zeit" is a pen and ink drawing by the German artist Daniel Gran, born in 1694. The drawing depicts a celestial scene with a prince seated beneath the Zodiac, with Jupiter and Mercury flanking him. On the right is the god Phoebus in his chariot drawn by horses, and the God of Time in the top left corner. This drawing likely served as a preliminary study for a larger fresco or painting, demonstrating Gran's skill at depicting complex compositions with numerous figures. The Städel Museum in Frankfurt, Germany, houses this artwork, which highlights Gran's interest in both mythological subjects and the intricacies of perspective and composition.
