Parhelia (Mock Suns) without haloes, observed in England in 1698. [1845]. On this occasion the phenomenon, caused by atmospheric refraction, began at 8am when true Sun shone through watery cloud, with mock suns appearing either side, and a pink half mock sun further off. The phenomenon lasted for two hours. From "The Beauty of the Heavens", Charles F Blunt, (London, 1845). Coloured lithograph.
