Der kosmographische St. Galler Globus (2018)

unapi

The St. Gall globe kept at the Swiss National Museum is a model of the earth in its firmament. It demonstrates the concept of a cosmographic theory of the 16th century, described here for the first time, and reaching from Johannes Schöner to Tilemann Stella. For a long time it was presumed that the globe originated in Augsburg. However, after a painted likeness was discovered, it was possible to determine the globe’s date of completion as 1576 in Schwerin. A true-to-original replica is exhibited at the monastery library in St. Gall.
