Illustrating the Cosmos
We wonder how Trouvelot's relationship with the Lick ultimately impacted the illustrations and photographs created there. Holden created astronomical illustrations in his own scrapbook, but ultimately, he held that photographic images are much more objective and factual than illustrations. The archives also contain several illustrations created by other astronomers at the Lick Observatory; displayed here are illustrations and sketches by James Keeler and J.M. Schaeberle, as well as images collected in the archives from astronomers at other observatories.
