Plate 70: A Roach Surrounded by Insects, created by the renowned 16th century Flemish artist Joris Hoefnagel (also known as Georg Hoefnagel or Georg Houfnagel), is a stunning work of art that showcases the intricacies of the natural world. This exquisite watercolor and gouache drawing on vellum, with an oval border in gold, dates back to the late 16th century, around 1575-1580. The artwork is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The central focus of the composition is a roach, surrounded by an array of various insects. Hoefnagel's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the vivid colors and precise depiction of each insect's unique features. The artist's mastery of the medium is further highlighted by the gold border that frames the image, adding an elegant and ornate touch.

His work was influential in the development of natural history and scientific illustration.
