EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph captures the intricate beauty of three fascinating insects - the Scarce vapourer moth, Orgyia recens, nut beetle, Strophosomus coryli, and mottled umber moth, Erannis defoliaria. Illustrated by Moses Harris and featured in "The Aurelian; a Natural History of English Moths and Butterflies," this print from 1840 showcases the delicate details of these creatures with precision. Each insect is depicted with lifelike accuracy, showcasing their unique characteristics and colors. The Scarce vapourer moth's fluffy appearance contrasts beautifully with the sleek body of the nut beetle and the intricate patterns on the wings of the mottled umber moth. These creatures seem to come to life on paper, inviting viewers to marvel at their complexity. As symbols of transformation and metamorphosis, moths hold a special place in entomology and natural history. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also as an educational tool for those interested in studying these fascinating insects up close. With its rich colors and detailed depiction, this lithograph is a true masterpiece that highlights the beauty of nature's smallest wonders.
