EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving from Friedrich Johann Bertuch's "Bilderbuch fur Kinder" showcases the intricate beauty of nature through detailed illustrations of the Nun moth, Lymantria monacha. The image features the caterpillar in its larval stage, as well as the elegant moth and Phalaena bombyx monacha in their adult forms.
The inclusion of the common house mosquito, Culex pipiens, with its distinctive head and proboscis adds another dimension to this educational piece. Each creature is meticulously depicted with precision and accuracy, highlighting Bertuch's dedication to providing children with a comprehensive understanding of natural history.
Published in Weimar in 1798, this engraving is just one example of Bertuch's extensive encyclopedia for children that covers various subjects such as science, costume, mythology, and more. With over 1,200 engraved plates like this one, his work remains a valuable resource for both young learners and enthusiasts alike.
Through this artwork, viewers are transported back in time to an era where scientific illustration was not only informative but also aesthetically pleasing. The delicate colors and fine details bring these creatures to life on paper, inviting us to marvel at the wonders of the natural world captured by Bertuch's skilled hand.
