EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print captures the beauty of the Marbled white butterfly, also known as Melanargia galathea or Galatea butterfly, along with its caterpillar counterpart. Illustrated and engraved by Richard Polydore Nodder, this handcoloured copperplate engraving is a true work of art from George Shaw and Frederick Nodder's "The Naturalist's Miscellany" in London, 1810.
The intricate details of both the butterfly and caterpillar are brought to life through Nodder's skilled hand, showcasing the delicate patterns and markings that make these creatures so fascinating to study. The Marbled white butterfly is a sight to behold with its striking black and white wings, while the caterpillar displays its own unique features as it prepares for metamorphosis.
This illustration not only serves as a visual delight but also as an important historical document in the field of natural history. It provides valuable insight into the world of insects and butterflies during a time when scientific exploration was at its peak.
