Antique Celestial Moon Goddess & Ursa Major Bear

Step into a whimsical cosmos with this authentic 1840s vintage celestial illustration depicting mythological gods and starry constellations in high-contrast black-and-white line art. In this imaginative Victorian engraving, the Roman Moon Goddess Luna clings to her crescent moon while evading Ursa Major (the Great Bear constellation) covered in glowing stars. Below, Mars walks by as a armored Roman soldier while Mercury relaxes on a distant mountain peak reading "the gazette." With its eerie, surreal, and dark academia aesthetic, this starry night sky print makes a fascinating focal point for home offices, stargazing nooks, libraries, nurseries, or gallery walls. An extraordinary gift for astronomers, mythology lovers, and collectors of rare vintage woodcut engravings.
