From the 19th to the 20th century, the night sky became not only an object of scientific inquiry but also a wellspring of inspiration for countless artists. During this period, many renowned artists captured and interpreted the grandeur and mystery of the heavens through their unique perspectives. These works often imbued with profound spiritual, philosophical, and aesthetic meanings, offer us an alternative way to explore the universe beyond scientific observation. They invite us to piece together our own understanding of the cosmos, merging the limited views of different individuals into a collective vision of the universe in our hearts.
在 19 世纪至 20 世纪，星空不仅是科学家们探索的对象，更是无数艺术家灵感的源泉。在这个时期，许多著名艺术家通过他们独特的视角，捕捉并诠释了夜空的壮丽与神秘。这些作品很多都被创作者赋予了深层的精神、哲学、和美学意义。它们给我们提供了除科学观测以外另一种探索宇宙的方式：结合不同人眼中有局限性的主管的宇宙，来拼凑出我们自己心中的宇宙。
