My sketch of lunar crater Clavius together with smaller craters Porter and Rutherfurd at the top of the drawing. Clavius measures 225km in diameter and is located near the southern pole of the Moon. It is named after Christophorus Clavius, a 16th century German mathematician and astronomer.

  1. Alexei,

    I very much enjoyed this rendering of Clavius in ink. Looks fantastic in this media and so dramatic.
