Questions About Galatea Of The Spheres
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021
    Hellenistic Greeks invented and used armillary spheres in the third century as a way to understand the horizon, meridian, equator, tropics and polar circles of the earth. They function as skeletal globes.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To read an armillary sphere, first familiarize yourself with the parts. The ring along the base is the horizon. On the armillary, the outermost ring is the meridian, while the largest inner ring is the ecliptic ring. Locate the date on the ecliptic ring and place a marker that represents the sun on it. Turn the sphere to trace the path the sun will take on that day. Use the markings on the horizon to find the ascension of the sunrise, and the ecliptic ring to find out the elevation of the sun at noon. Find a collection of armillary spheres on 1stDibs.

    Garden spheres can be made in a number of ways and out of a wide variety of materials. One method that is popular for DIYers is pouring concrete into glass lighting globes, letting the concrete dry and then breaking the glass and removing it to reveal the globe underneath. Find vintage and contemporary garden spheres from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.

    Hand with Reflective Sphere is so famous because it demonstrates artist M.C. Escher's skill at fooling the eye. Since he produced the print in January 1935, viewers have been intrigued by the realistic distorted reflection visible in the sphere. In addition, some people see a deeper meaning in the work related to how people distort their own self-images. Shop a selection of M.C. Escher art on 1stDibs.
