EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the intricate beauty of a Half peacock sphinx on an apple branch - Eyed hawkmoth, Smerinthus ocellatus, in both its larva and pupa stages. Drawn and etched by Jacob l'Admiral in 1774 for Naauwkeurige Waarneemingen omtrent de veranderingen van veele Insekten (Accurate Descriptions of the Metamorphoses of Insects), this print is a true work of art.
The delicate details of the moth's wings and body are expertly depicted, showcasing the artist's skill and precision. The vibrant colors bring the scene to life, making it seem as though the insect could flutter off the page at any moment.
As we admire this image, we are reminded of the incredible transformations that insects undergo during their lifecycles. From humble larvae to magnificent winged creatures, each stage is a testament to nature's wonder and complexity.
This print serves as a reminder to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us, even in the smallest of creatures. It is a celebration of biodiversity and a tribute to the artists who have dedicated their talents to capturing its essence for generations to come.
