A circular engraving depicting Urania, the muse of astronomy, imagined as a woman in a long, draped dress, sitting under a tree against the background of a landscape. Hair pinned up, jewelry on both hands, neck and ears. He holds a compass in his left hand and a scroll in his right hand. It is supported on a celestial globe. At her feet lie an astrolabe and a book. A city and a group of people watching the starry sky are visible in the distance.
