Description |
English:
17th century painting of Stockholm, a copy of the so called
Vädersolstavlan
, depicting a
halo display
event in 1535. Cleaned in 1998.
The visible haloes are:
Note that the whole sky appears strongly tilted in the image: the upper right corner is actually down in the sky (when looking towards the Sun), the zenith is at the center of the circumzenithal arc and parhelic circle . This may result from the artist's choice to represent the display in a realistic orientation relative to the landscape: in this case the sun would have shone from 3/4 back to the right of an observer facing the city. The relative brightnesses of the haloes are quite accurate. |
