"Astrologia" engraved by Cornelis Cort (Holland, 1565)--Astrology, the seventh liberal art, is depicted as a winged female figure beside a globe featuring constellations. Included in the picture are scientific instruments and science books, including one by the astronomer Ptolemy of Alexandria. The entire series of illustrations of the Seven Liberal Arts can be found here.
