Framed Zodiac Art

One would expect modern people to stray from these old concepts and rely exclusively on science, but superstitions have the uncanny ability of surviving regardless of context. The earliest Zodiacs were embraced by Greek astronomy more than 2000 years ago and some of the drawings created back then can now be admired in Framed Zodiac Art. Hellenistic astrology was actually inspired by its Egyptian and Babylonian counterparts, with some symbols being tweaked to better reflect their own culture.

Western horoscopic astrology is closely tied to the zodiac and over the centuries, there were plenty of astronomers that paid attention to this pseudo-science. Even famous painters were attracted by the hidden significance of the 12 signs and created masterpieces, such as the Libra and her Sparrow. The painting was authored by Sir Edmund John Poynter at the beginning of the 20th century and a fine replica can be found among the collection of Framed Zodiac Art.
