Kraters op de maan before 1899

This detailed black and white photograph by Loewy et Puiseux, titled “Kraters op de maan,” is a scientific illustration of the moon's surface. Created before 1899, it showcases the craters and other geological features of the moon's surface. The image is part of a larger atlas of the moon, "Atlas Celeste de la Lune," which was published in multiple volumes from 1896-1910. The image highlights the scientific approach to astronomy and its role in the study and understanding of celestial bodies in the late 19th century.
