Imago universi in Latin means "image of the universe".
In the Middle Ages the expression was used to express the representation and size of the known world at that time.[citation needed]
Cartographer Andreas Cellarius described his star atlas Harmonia Macrocosmica, published 1660, as "Imago universi secundum Ptolaeum" (English: "Picture of the Universe according to Ptolemy").[citation needed]
"Imago universi : una historia de la concepción humana del cosmos" is the title of two volumes in Spanish on cosmology.[1]
