EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the exquisite beauty of various moth species found in nature. The print, created by Johann Carl Bock after Eugenius Johann Christoph Esper's work "Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur" transports us back to the enchanting world of 18th-century entomology. The image features six distinct moths, each meticulously depicted with vibrant colors and intricate details. Starting from left to right, we encounter the Burren green moth (Calamia tridens), followed by the sallow moth (Xanthia icteritia) and angle-striped sallow moth (Enargia paleacea). Continuing on, we come across two variations of the double line moth (Mythimna turca). These delicate creatures are captured at different stages of their life cycle – from pupa to larva and finally as fully formed adult moths. Their metamorphosis is a testament to nature's incredible ability for transformation. The artist's skillful rendering brings these moths to life, allowing us to appreciate their unique patterns and colors. This print serves as a reminder of the diverse wonders that exist within our natural world. Whether you are an enthusiast of entomology or simply captivated by the beauty found in nature, this handcoloured copperplate engraving is sure to spark your curiosity and admiration for these remarkable insects.
