Astrologia 1670 - 1724

"Astrologia" is an etching by Jacob Gole, a Dutch artist who was active in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. The artwork depicts a woman seated in front of a table covered with scientific instruments, including a telescope, an astrolabe, a compass, and a globe. The woman, likely an astrologer, represents the study of the stars and their influence on human affairs. Created between 1670 and 1724, "Astrologia" reflects the burgeoning interest in science and astronomy during the Dutch Golden Age, and is a testament to Gole's artistic skill in capturing the detail and symbolism of scientific study.
