EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Granger Art on Demand showcases the infamous Grape Phylloxera, a destructive pest that wreaked havoc on grapevines in the late 19th century. Originally native to eastern North America, this tiny insect caused widespread devastation in vineyards across the world. The image itself is a remarkable line engraving dating back to 1874, capturing the intricate details of this notorious pest. The delicate engravings highlight the distinct features of both the adult and larval stages of Phylloxera, providing a fascinating insight into its life cycle. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded of the immense impact that Grape Phylloxera had on viticulture during this era. Vineyard owners and winemakers faced significant challenges as their precious grapevines succumbed to this relentless invader.
