Vintage Star Chart of Auriga Constellation Tile

The constellation Auriga the Charioteer encompasses Capella, which is the sixth brightest star in the night sky. This star is also called Alpha Aurigae because of its bright point in Auriga. In ancient charts, Auriga is often depicted with a goat and the reigns of a chariot. Ancient star charts make you wonder what people were thinking in mediaeval days as they gazed up at a night full of stars. This design is surrounded by a dusty vintage blue-green. Whether you're giving a gift to an astronomy buff, or you enjoy studying mediaeval maps or watching the stars yourself, this design might be the right touch. Maps of other constellations are available for decorating with a theme.
