EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored steel engraving, created by the Pauquet brothers and based on an original illustration by Alexis Nicolas Noel, showcases four exquisite species of hawkmoths native to Europe: the Vine Hawkmoth (Hippotion celerio), Mediterranean Hawkmoth (Hyles nicaea), Small Elephant Hawkmoth (Deilephila porcellus), and the Hippotion celerio, also known as the Celerio or Spiny-shouldered Hawkmoth. The Vine Hawkmoth, with its distinctive white stripes and brown wings, is often found near vineyards and gardens. The Mediterranean Hawkmoth, also known as the Nicaea Hawkmoth, boasts bright orange and black wings with intricate patterns. The Small Elephant Hawkmoth, as its name suggests, is smaller in size and features a striking elephant-like proboscis. This beautiful work of art is taken from Hippolyte Lucas's Natural History of European Butterflies, or Histoire Naturelle des Lepidopteres d'Europe, published in 1864. The meticulous attention to detail in the illustration and engraving process highlights the unique features and beauty of each hawkmoth species. The Pauquet brothers, known for their exceptional skill in steel engraving, expertly brought Noel's illustrations to life through this intricate process. The addition of hand-coloring further enhances the vibrancy and realism of the image, making it a true masterpiece of natural history art. This print not only serves as a testament to the natural beauty of these European hawkmoths but also showcases the artistry and craftsmanship of the Pauquet brothers and Alexis Nicolas Noel during the 19th century.
