In the beginning, the waters were divided.

Above the firmament lie the celestial waters, with Sol and Luna tracing their appointed paths beneath the vault of heaven. Below rests the inhabited earth, its mountains rising above the deep and its rivers running toward the outer sea. Beneath the earth lies Sheol, the realm of the departed, descending through the foundations of the world. Below all is the Great Deep—the primordial abyss associated with the waters of creation and the dark dwelling of Leviathan.

This original Etherfolk reconstruction brings together cosmological imagery found across Genesis, Job, the Psalms, and related ancient Jewish texts. Rather than reproducing one surviving historical diagram, it gathers those scriptural elements into a single visual model of the biblical world: the firmament above, the inhabited earth below, Sheol beneath, and the Great Deep at the foundation.

Rendered in antique gold against deep navy, the composition draws from the visual language of medieval illuminated manuscripts and sacred cosmological charts. Angels occupy the corners, the created order unfolds through clearly defined strata, and the inscription at the base reads, “To the Glory of the Almighty Creator.”

The piece is intended as a work of sacred cosmological art: a modern reconstruction shaped by Scripture, historical interpretation, and the long visual tradition of giving structure to the heavens, the earth, and the deep.

Printed on heavyweight artist-grade canvas and mounted within a solid pine floating frame, it arrives ready to hang. The recessed open-back construction allows the canvas to sit within the frame with a narrow surrounding gap, giving the work a restrained, architectural presence.

Early Christian Cosmology Poster, After Cosmas Indicopleustes
from $46.40
A historical Christian cosmology poster inspired by Cosmas Indicopleustes’ Christian Topography, depicting heaven, firmament, earth, and sea in sacred order. Rendered as a late antique manuscript plate, this design follows the architectural logic of early Christian cosmography: the world as a sacred structure, the firmament as appointed boundary, the earth set within the surrounding sea, and heaven above as holy chamber. The composition is a modern reconstruction after Cosmas Indicopleustes, drawing from the visual and theological tradition of Christian Topography.

from $44.00

Framed poster depicting the firmament of Genesis 1:6–8, with the waters above, the sea below, and the appointed lights beneath the vault.

This old-world biblical print renders the firmament as sacred architecture: a golden dome dividing the upper waters from the lower world. Angels stand beneath the structure, the moon is set within the heavens, and the lower horizon opens over mountains, ocean, and first light.

The parchment cartouche preserves the text:

“And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.”

Cosmas Indicopleustes Christian Topography Print
from $44.00
A Christian cosmology print after Cosmas Indicopleustes, depicting the firmament, the northern mountain, and the inhabited world in the visual language of early Christian cosmography. Rendered after the manuscript tradition of Christian Topography, this piece follows Cosmas’ sacred world-structure: the arched vault above, the conical northern mountain, and the inhabited earth set within the surrounding waters. The image is not a facsimile of one surviving manuscript page, but a modern reconstruction drawn from the older Christian cosmographical record. The Greek labels identify three central features of the model: ΣΤΕΡΕΩΜΑ — Firmament The firmament marks the upper boundary or vault of the visible world. In Christian cosmological tradition, the firmament is tied to the order described in Genesis, separating the waters above from the world below. ΟΡΟΣ ΒΟΡΕΙΟΝ — Northern Mountain The northern mountain is one of the distinctive features of Cosmas’ cosmography. In his explanation of the sun’s course, the mountain helps account for the movement of light, shadow, day, and night within the created order. ΟΙΚΟΥΜΕΝΗ — Inhabited World The oikoumene is the inhabited earth: the ordered human world beneath the firmament, shown here as the land set within the cosmic enclosure.

from $44.00

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." — Genesis 1:1
Christ Pantocrator sits enthroned above the created order, set against a field of gold and attended by two archangels. Beneath Him, the firmament forms the boundary between the heavens and the inhabited world below. The earth appears as a bounded disc surrounded by sea, with church, river, and mountain arranged across its surface. Below, Sheol opens through the foundations as a dark cavern, fire visible within, while four angels kneel at the corners of the composition.

This original Etherfolk composition draws on Byzantine iconography, biblical cosmological imagery, and the ordered visual language of illuminated manuscripts. It does not reproduce one surviving historical icon. Instead, it gathers these elements into a single sacred cosmological plate: Christ above, the firmament between, the inhabited earth below, and Sheol beneath the world.

Rendered in deep blue, antique gold, ivory, and warm ink-black, the piece is designed to carry the gravity of an icon while remaining clear about what it is: a modern work shaped by Scripture and historic Christian visual tradition.

Printed on heavyweight artist-grade canvas and mounted within a solid pine floating frame, it arrives ready to hang. The open-back construction gives the canvas a restrained, architectural presence without unnecessary ornament.

Before the maps were redrawn, the Norse knew the shape of everything.
Yggdrasil at the center of all things. Midgard encircled by Jörmungandr, the world serpent biting its own tail. The Bifrost bridge arcing upward to the golden spires of Asgard above the clouds. Viking longships navigating the outer ocean. The roots descending into the cold dark of Niflheim below.
This is not mythology. This is cosmology — encoded, preserved, and recovered.

Rendered in the tradition of Flemish cartographic engravers, this framed canvas maps the full Norse nine realms with the precision of a survey plate and the drama of an illuminated manuscript.

"He made the sky and the earth according to his heart's desire."
— Egyptian Book of the Dead

Nut arches across the composition as the star-covered sky, her body forming the celestial vault above the world. Beneath her, Shu stands with arms raised, holding sky and earth apart. Ra’s solar barque moves through the heavens, carrying the sun and its divine company across the ordered expanse. Below, Geb reclines as the earth itself, with river, vegetation, and sacred architecture emerging from his body.

This original Etherfolk composition draws on ancient Egyptian cosmological imagery in which the structure of creation is expressed through divine form: sky as goddess, earth as god, air as the force that separates them, and the solar barque as the appointed vessel of celestial passage.

The work does not reproduce one surviving papyrus or tomb scene. It gathers several familiar elements of Egyptian sacred cosmology into a single modern plate, arranged in the flat, hierarchical visual language associated with New Kingdom wall painting and papyrus illustration.

Rendered with mineral tones, firm black outlines, and a restrained absence of perspective, the composition preserves the clarity of the source tradition without presenting the finished work as an antique or recovered document.

Printed on heavyweight artist-grade canvas and mounted within a solid pine floating frame, it arrives ready to hang. The open-back construction gives the piece a quiet, architectural presence suited to study rooms, libraries, and spaces devoted to sacred history.
