EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph captures the intricate beauty of three different moth species resting on bilberry leaves. The Small emperor moth, Saturnia pavonia, with its delicate wings and vibrant colors, contrasts beautifully with the smaller eggar moth, Eriogaster lanestris, and the yellow-tail moth, Euproctis similis. Each moth is meticulously detailed in this illustration by Moses Harris from "The Aurelian; a Natural History of English Moths and Butterflies," edited by J.O. Westwood in 1840.
The image showcases the fascinating world of entomology in the 19th century, highlighting the metamorphosis process of these insects from pupa to caterpillar to adult moth. The combination of scientific accuracy and artistic skill makes this print a true masterpiece that continues to captivate viewers today.
As you study each intricately drawn detail - from the patterns on their wings to the texture of the leaves they rest upon - you can't help but marvel at nature's diversity and complexity. This print serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our natural world and appreciating its wonders for generations to come.
