Grabado en madera de un astrónomo barbudo con túnica que marca un globo con compás en un estudio, con otro globo y una ventana.

Astrónomo con compás y globo, grabado en madera de Jost Amman, 1568

Un hombre barbudo con una larga túnica se inclina sobre un globo celeste en un estudio y usa un compás para marcar puntos en su superficie. Sobre la mesa hay un segundo globo y una esfera similar a un armilar, y a la izquierda se ven nubes y un edificio lejano por la ventana. Las líneas paralelas finas del grabado definen los pliegues y la cortina de la derecha.
