"For the World is also bounded

A painted portrait of a black moon standing beside a table and chair with a bookcase behind him. He wears a formal coat and breeches. A world globe is on the floor, and a celestial globe is on the table. The man rests his hand on an upon book. A landscape of a small town surrounded by grass and a river is visible through the window.
