The upper section depicts a celestial diagram of the solar system against a starry background. At the center is a personified Sun with a face, radiating light. Surrounding the Sun are concentric orbital paths labeled with planetary names and personified figures: Mercury, Venus, Ceres and Proserpina (Earth and Moon), Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Each planet is accompanied by its astrological symbol and a mythological figure. Below the Sun, a larger sphere representing the Earth is shown with rays of light connecting it to the Sun. Latin banners surround this central interaction with the phrases translated as: "light," "I give heat to all," "motion," "They adorn the universe," "They illuminate each other," and "They cherish their own."

The lower section features three prominent historical astronomers. On the left stands Nicolaus Copernicus, pointing upward toward the heavens. In the center, a large unfurled scroll serves as the title banner. On the right stand Galileo Galilei, holding a long telescope, and Johannes Kepler, peering from behind him. Above them, an eagle flies with a banner in its beak reading "These are his eyes." Two other banners float near the figures: "What if it were thus?" on the left and "I wish I had wings" on the right. At the bottom center, an ornate cartouche contains the publication details.
