Description
A chart of the constellations Orion and Lepus (named, like the other plates, in French, English and German), with the outline of the hunter and the hare pricked out and with yellow shaped holes for the stars, so they are illuminated when the card is held up to the light. The stars are shaped to represent their apparent magnitude.
From Braun's 'Himmels-Atlas in transparente Karten'.
