EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Shiny Spider Beetle, 1833-39" transports us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the world of natural history. Created by an anonymous French artist from that era, this print is part of a private collection. The artwork originates from "A Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la nature" a publication by Felix Edouard Guérin-Méneville between 1833 and 1839. The meticulous detail captured in this illustration showcases not only the beauty but also the scientific accuracy of these creatures. Intriguingly, this particular beetle is known as Gibbium psylloides or the Shiny Spider Beetle. It shares its habitat with two other notable plants: Zingiber officinale (ginger) and Panax ginseng (ginseng). These elements are beautifully intertwined within the composition, emphasizing their interconnectedness in nature. The delicate lines and vibrant colors used in this engraving bring life to every aspect depicted – from the intricate patterns on the beetle's exoskeleton to the lush foliage surrounding it. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an educational tool for those interested in entomology and botany alike. Preserved through time, thanks to ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's efforts, this image continues to captivate viewers today. As we admire it now, let us
