Around 1550, Zacharias Scultetus designed two wall dials for the facade of a handsome Renaissance-style house in Görlitz, Germany (see: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/vdvlsur0w626kfe/AACEf1HseuQZm2SYtesQYHmra?dl=0<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.dropbox.com_sh_vdvlsur0w626kfe_AACEf1HseuQZm2SYtesQYHmra-3Fdl-3D0&d=CwMGaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=7ZsgDX5inZSMERqhZEQacOtdADP0iy6-YB7dx6Z_mVo&m=MoRKEV7KUOI1eB6utogv6Q1AHCL0V8Lwx9rMDQgruio&s=IYFeIRmHePpc7QiHHJLB6xna2Sej46zIljZ-yq0jWyk&e=>). The Solarium on the left includes lines for civil hours, Italian hours, Nuremberg hours. The Arachne on the right includes lines for the planetary hours (showing the ruling planets for each hour) and the solar altitudes, azimuths and astrological houses. Are other sixteenth-century wall dials known that show planetary hours in this manner? Please direct your correspondence to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>. Many thanks.
