IMAGE number: BL5346437
Image title: The predicted floods of 1524, early 16th century. In the sky is a great fish representing Pisces. A flood pours from it sweeping away a small group of houses and people directly below it. Members of the clergy and a king gather on the right, and on the left are a crowd of men carrying tools and spears. In 1517 astrologers began to concern themselves with the Great Conjunction of all the planets in the constellation Pisces which would occur in February 1524.
