EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed coloured engraving captures the mesmerizing beauty of a False Blister Beetle, dating back to the 19th century. The artwork is part of a private collection and was originally published in "A Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la nature" between 1833-39 by Felix Edouard Guerin-Meneville. The image showcases the beetle's intricate features, with its metallic green exoskeleton shimmering under the light. Its slender body and delicate legs are expertly rendered, highlighting the artist's keen attention to detail. The False Blister Beetle belongs to the Calopus genus, known for their striking appearance and predatory behavior towards caterpillars. Surrounded by other captivating illustrations of reptiles, birds, insects, and animals from various species, this print offers a glimpse into the diverse world of nature as observed during that era. The French School's skillful use of colour and precision in capturing each creature's unique characteristics make this engraving an exquisite piece of art. Preserved through time by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen, this historical print continues to captivate viewers with its scientific accuracy combined with artistic flair. As we admire this remarkable representation today, we can appreciate both its aesthetic appeal and its contribution to our understanding of these fascinating creatures from centuries past.
