Zrcadlo Úranie
Zrcadlo Úranie, neboli Pohled na nebe je sada 32 karet s hvězdnými mapami, poprvé publikovaných v listopadu 1824.[1][2] Kresby byly založené na Nebeském Atlase Alexandra Jamiesona,[2] ale do míst, kde se nacházely hvězdy, byly udělány dírky, což umožnilo vidět zářící hvězdy, když byly karty drženy proti zdroji světla.[1] Vyryl je Sidney Hall a myslelo se, že byly navrženy "neznámou ženou". Poté bylo ale dílo přisouzeno reverendu Richardu Rouse Bloxamovi, asistentu ředitele v jedné škole.[3]
