Bloxam, Richard Rouse

Urania’s Mirror is a set of 32 constellation cards first published by Samuel Leigh of the Strand, London, in or shortly before 1825. They included the 12 signs of the Zodiac. The engraver was Sidney Hall but authorship was coyly attributed to “a lady”. The Royal Astronomical Society in London has established that the true author was almost certainly the Reverend Richard Rouse Bloxam. Our colourful fine art prints are inspired by the cards, and would make delightful birthday gifts.
