EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Tiger & Ground Beetles, 1863-79" takes us back in time to the late 19th century when zoological studies were at their peak. Created by Raimundo Petraroja, a renowned artist of that era, this colour lithograph showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image depicts two magnificent tiger beetles alongside various ground beetles, all meticulously illustrated with vibrant colors and intricate patterns. The composition is part of the "Popular Zoological Atlas" a comprehensive work compiled from the latest Italian and foreign zoology publications during that period. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of the immense diversity found within our natural world. The delicate beauty of these insects is brought to life through Petraroja's skilled hand, allowing us to appreciate their unique characteristics and marvel at their existence. Displayed against a plain background, the focus remains solely on these fascinating creatures - their elongated bodies, shimmering exoskeletons, and intricate wing structures. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a scientific record of entomology during its time. Preserved in private collection today but made accessible through Bridgeman Images' efforts, this artwork continues to inspire awe for nature's wonders. It serves as a testament to mankind's eternal fascination with the animal kingdom while reminding us of our responsibility towards preserving biodiversity for future generations.
