Step into the golden age of Renaissance mathematics and imagination with this striking Icosahedron woven blanket by Lorenz Stoer, a 16th-century German mathematician, engraver, and architectural visionary. Stoer is best known for his 1567 treatise Geometria et Perspectiva, a remarkable book that blended advanced geometry with fantastical cityscapes and crystalline polyhedra. His engravings explored how pure mathematical forms could exist not only as abstract ideas, but as objects inhabiting space, architecture, and the natural world.
The icosahedron depicted here—one of the five Platonic solids—was especially significant in Renaissance thought. Long associated with harmony, proportion, and the structure of the cosmos, the icosahedron represented water in classical philosophy and was studied intensely by artists, scientists, and architects seeking to understand divine order through geometry. Stoer’s interpretation places the form within an imagined landscape, transforming mathematics into something poetic, mysterious, and visually arresting.
Woven as a large 50 x 60 inch blanket or wall tapestry, this piece brings Stoer’s visionary engraving into tactile form. It works beautifully as a dramatic throw, a scholarly statement piece, or wall art for lovers of Dark Academia, Renaissance art, sacred geometry, and mathematical history. Equal parts intellectual and decorative, it invites contemplation—of form, space, and the timeless human desire to find meaning in patterns.
