1822 - engraving World Map Céleste: Jardin D'Ormuzd & Empire D'Ahriman. Persian

Description: engraving antique from 1822Very pretty and unusual engraving dating from 1822, taken from a work on religion, mythology, archaeology and astrology. Titled: "Garden of Ormusd, or the six miles of God, and the six miles of the Devil, or the Empire of Ahriman.". Both very decorative and instructive. This engraving represents a celestial planisphere of the Persian civilization. See original explanations below.Dimensions: 21 cm x 29 cmConservation condition of use, with the usual marks of time: more or less light dampening, foxing, handwritten inscriptions... Please look at the pictures!The Disciples of Zoroaster divided the whole of time into twelve thousand: six thousand times, or years, during which man lives happily in the garden of Ormusd; and six thousand times, or years, during which man is unhappy under the Empire of Ahriman. Then he entered Paradise or the garden of Ormusd, through the gate of the Lamb, the celestial Ram; from whose throne flows the river Orion, or the Cyon, one of the rivers of the earthly Paradise. On this door is placed Perseus, armed with a scimitar, who defends the Ram with the Golden Fleece: it is the Chelub, or Cherub with the flaming sword of Genesis. The view of this Planisphere will provide the key to Hebrew Cosmogony, which was modeled on that of the ancient Persians.Professional in the sale (and passion) of historical and geographical engravings, I will ship your purchase with the greatest care as I myself would like to receive it.
