Fotoreproductie van foto door Warren de la Rue van vlekken op de maan 1887 - 1888

This photo reproduction of the moon, created by Marinus Pieter Filbri in 1887-1888, is a fascinating example of early photographic documentation of celestial bodies. The image, originally taken by Warren de la Rue, showcases the moon's surface with a level of detail that was groundbreaking for its time. The use of a dark, octagonal border around the lunar image creates a visual contrast that enhances the moon's presence and emphasizes its mysterious, celestial allure. This image is a testament to the intersection of art and science in the 19th century and provides a glimpse into the early stages of astrophotography.
