Rivista di astronomia e scienze affini, 1909, a. 3, n. 12 (December)

Società astronomica italiana, Osservatorio astronomico di Torino · 1909 · 8 pictures

An Italian astronomy periodical issued in 1909 by the Società astronomica italiana and the Turin astronomical observatory, serving amateur and professional astronomers. Its pictures show a map of Mars drawn from Meudon observations, an observatory instrument with a telescope and clockwork mechanism, a telescopic view of Mars, and a portable precision clock in a wooden case, all in halftone engraving style; a designer could draw on the detailed scientific diagrams, the circular telescope-field framing, and the sober line-and-tone rendering of technical equipment.
