"The Sun Passing the Sign of Virgo," Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis, 1908.

I've talked about Lithuanian composer and painter Čiurlionis (1875-1911) before, so I won't repeat myself much. This image was part of a series of Zodiac-themed paintings, but there's no occult significance. Čiurlionis was fascinated by astronomy and was an avid reader of the works of the French astronomer Camille Flammarion, whose writings helped demystify astronomy for the masses. (And what a name ! Camille Flammarion was himself fascinated by the occult and spent some time investigating the paranormal.)

This moody painting is a bit late for the actual period of Virgo, which ended September 22nd, but it's still a great image.

From the M. K. Čiurlionis National Museum of Art, Kaunas, Lithuania.
