The circles of Hell rightfully get all the attention. But what about the circles of Heaven? . This early 17th-century Italian chart presents what appears to be a cross-section of the universe, with the underworld—Hell and Purgatory—at its center and succeeding circles representing new zones: the known world, Air, Fire, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, the Sun, and so on. (Separating the underworld from the rest of the chart is a circle of enshrouded bodies.) . [Teatro del cielo, a della terra. Francesco Robacioli. Brescia, Italy. 1602.
