EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor illustration showcases the captivating beauty of the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail butterfly, Papilio glaucus. The plate is taken from an unpublished album of Lepidoptera watercolors by the renowned naturalist and artist, Eleazar Albin, created in the early 18th century. The Eastern Tiger Swallowtail is a large and vibrant butterfly, with its wings adorned with distinctive black and yellow stripes and orange spots, resembling the pattern of a tiger. This exquisite illustration highlights the intricate details of the butterfly's wings, the delicate veining, and the subtle variations in color. The Eastern Tiger Swallowtail is a member of the family Papilionidae, also known as the swallowtails, and the subfamily Danainae, which includes the milkweed butterflies. These butterflies are important pollinators, and their larvae feed on the leaves of various plants, including those in the milkweed family. Eleazar Albin was a pioneering figure in the field of natural history illustration, producing some of the most detailed and accurate depictions of his time. His work was influential in advancing the scientific understanding of Lepidoptera, and his watercolors remain a valuable resource for researchers and enthusiasts today. This image is a testament to the artistry and naturalistic observation of Eleazar Albin, capturing the essence of the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail in all its glory. The intricacies of the butterfly's wings are brought to life through the skillful use of watercolor, creating a work of art that is as beautiful as it is scientifically accurate.
