Sculptor (constellation)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Sculptor is a minor southern constellation which was introduced by Nicolas Louis de Lacaille. He originally named it after a sculptor's studio, but the name was later shortened.

Sculptor contains the south galactic pole. It also contains the Sculptor System (the Sculptor Dwarf), which is a member of the Local Group.
