Konvolut von 5 Original Fotografien aus dem Berliner Mondatlas. 1965-1968. Je Silbergelatingabzug. Je 21 x 21 cm. Je punktuell auf Unterlage und unter Passepartout montiert. Verso je mit typographischer Beschriftung mit Angaben zu Beleuchtungsgrad, Mondalter und Libration sowie dem Datum der Aufnahme.

Photographie - Photographen – Die vorliegenden Fotografien entstanden für den 1974 von Günter Voigt und Dieter Giebler herausgegebenen Mondatlas, der aus der Beobachtungspraxis der Berliner Mondbeobachter an der Wilhelm-Foerster-Sternwarte hervorging. Grundlage bildete der dort eingesetzte Bamberg-Refraktor, der in Verbindung mit einer eigens konstruierten Kamera ine detailgenaue fotografische Erfassung des Mondes ermöglichte. Zwischen 1964 und 1969 entstand so eine systematische Serie von 31 Mondphasen, die nahezu eine vollständige Lunation abbildet. Die hier vorliegenden Abzüge (1965-1968) zeigen den Mond in unterschiedlichen Beleuchtungszuständen mit besonderem Fokus auf den Terminator, entlang dessen Krater und Reliefstrukturen durch streifendes Licht besonders plastisch hervortreten. - Je an den Klebestellen minimal knickspurig. Insgesamt sehr gut.

Photography – Collection of 5 original photographs from the Berlin Moon Atlas. Each mounted on a backing board and set in a passe-partout. Verso each with a typographic inscription giving details of the degree of illumination, the age of the moon and the libration, as well as the date the photograph was taken. Each with minimal creasing at the adhesive joints. Overall in very good condition. - These photographs were taken for the Lunar Atlas published in 1974 by Günter Voigt and Dieter Giebler, which was based on the observational work of the Berlin lunar observers at the Wilhelm Foerster Observatory. The work was based on the Bamberg refractor used there, which, in conjunction with a specially designed camera, enabled a detailed photographic record of the Moon to be made. Between 1964 and 1969, a systematic series of 31 lunar phases was thus produced, depicting almost a complete lunation. The prints presented here (1965-1968) show the Moon in various states of illumination, with a particular focus on the terminator, along which craters and relief structures stand out particularly vividly due to the oblique light.
