@andreeafont @TheConversationUK #AltText a 1970 coloured version by Roberta Weir of a wood engraving by an unknown artist, probably circa 1570. Its first documented appearance is in the book L'atmosphère : météorologie populaire ("The Atmosphere: Popular Meteorology"), published in 1888 by the French astronomer and writer Camille Flammarion.

On the right, the terrestrial realm depicts a green landscape with a tree, flowers, rolling hills, a village with buildings, and a yellow sun with a human face surrounded by rays. The ornate border framing the image includes intricate decorative patterns. At the bottom, the Latin text "Urbi et Orbi" is displayed. 2/2
