Description

John Russell’s Lunar Planisphere glows with forensic devotion. Every crater, ridge, and ripple of basalt appears suspended in a charcoal halo, each incision carved through Enlightenment wonder.

The moon becomes a colossal mirror for human curiosity—etched through candlelight, magnified by telescopic glass, translated into powdered silver and chalk. Its topography vibrates between science and devotion, precision and awe. 

You feel the draught of night air, the silence of an astronomer mapping impact scars older than memory. Each circular depression suggests collision, creation, persistence. Russell turns data into reverie, rendering the celestial sphere not as distance but proximity: an object touched by graphite, measured by longing.

About the Artist

John Russell RA (1745–1806) was an English painter celebrated for his luminous portraits in oils and pastels and for fusing faith with artistry. Born in Guildford, Surrey, he trained under Francis Cotes and inherited the pastel refinement of Rosalba Carriera. A devout Methodist, Russell’s moral rigor shaped both his life and art, recorded in meticulous shorthand diaries. His portraits captured Britain’s intellectual elite—scientists like William Herschel—and his celestial masterpiece The Face of the Moon (1793–1797) remains a landmark of artistic astronomy. As painter, teacher, and innovator, Russell bridged Enlightenment science with the fervor of spiritual devotion.
