EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts the White ermine, Spilosoma lubricipeda, a striking and elusive moth of the family Saturniidae. The White ermine, also known as the Quaker Moth or the Red Line Moth, is native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia. Its wingspan reaches up to 10 centimeters, and its wings are adorned with intricate patterns of white, red, and black lines. The White ermine undergoes a complete metamorphosis, transforming from a caterpillar to a pupa, and finally to an adult moth. During its larval stage, the caterpillar feeds on various plants, including nettles, willows, and thistles. Once it has reached maturity, the caterpillar forms a chrysalis, or pupa, in which it undergoes a remarkable transformation. This beautiful engraving is the work of the renowned German naturalist and engraver, Johann Carl Bock. It was created in 1786 for Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur (The Butterflies and Moths in Representations according to Nature). Bock's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the delicate lines and vibrant colors of this engraving, which captures the essence of the White ermine's ethereal beauty. The White ermine is a fascinating example of the natural world's intricate designs and the transformative power of metamorphosis. This engraving is not only a testament to Bock's artistic skill but also to his dedication to documenting the natural world for future generations to appreciate.
