#   The page contains only a circular diagram, framed by two faint
#   mechanically drawn circles, each surrounded by a ring of text.
#
#   The whole is surrounded by another thin circle, about 1cm further
#   out, that begins looking mechanically drawn but at some point
#   wanders off and fails to close on itself, as if the fixed leg of the
#   compass had skipped a bit.
#
#   A thick radial stroke at 10:30 connects this outermost circle to
#   the next one, through the gap between two words of the outer text
#   ring. Another pair of thick radial strokes at 10:00 connects the
#   second and third circles, breaking the second text ring. 
#
#   At the center of the diagram is a sun, with narrow flipped
#   S-shaped rays (yellow-colored) and a human face (with neutral
#   expression, straight light-colored or uncolored hair combed back
#   at the sides, held by a narrow headband with dots.)
#
#   Surrounding the sun is a "starry windmill": a fat star with
#   serrated outline, consisting of 16 sectors shaped like narrow
#   kites, each split radially into a "light" (clockwise) half,
#   uncolored, with a dotted line and some small stars; and a "dark",
#   painted a solid dark blue. Clockwise from the 10:00 point, the
#   light half-sectors contain the following counts of
#   (yellow-colored) stars:
#
#     4 4 4 3 4 4 5 6 6 6 7 7 6 5 5 5 
#     * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
#     * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
#     * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
#     * * *   * * * * * * * * * * * *
#                 * * * * * * * * * *
#                   * * * * * *      
#                         * * ?  
#                           ?
#
#   The "?" are splotches that may be stars. All told there are probably 
#   66 stars, possibly 67 or 68.
#
#   Thin radial lines connect each point of the star to the inner edge
#   of the frame. The 16 sectors defined by these lines are
#   alternatingly filled with unnamed yellow-colored stars, or labeled
#   with a radial text line, reading outwards. Clockwise from the
#   10:00 ray, the sectors contain the following counts:
#
#     8 7 7 8 9 9 8 7
#     * * * * * * * *
#     * * * * * * * *
#     * * * * * * * *
#     * * * * * * * *
#     * * * * * * * *
#     * * * * * * * *
#     * * * * * * * *
#     *     * * * *    
#             * *        
#
#   There are 63 stars in total.
#
#   There is a comet-tail-like object behind one of the stars in 
#   the 03:00 sector.
#
#   All these details are visible on Smythe's color plates.
