EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two stunning underwing moths, Catocala pacta and Catocala coniuncta. The handcoloured copperplate engraving was skillfully created by Johann Carl Bock after Eugenius Johann Christoph Esper's renowned work, Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur, Erlangen, 1786. The exquisite details of these nocturnal creatures are brought to life through the vibrant colors meticulously applied by hand. The delicate patterns on their wings and bodies are a testament to the intricate beauty found in nature. These underwing moths belong to the Lepidoptera family and undergo a remarkable metamorphosis from pupa to larva before transforming into their final form as magnificent insects. Their presence adds an enchanting touch to any natural setting they inhabit. Johann Carl Bock's masterful engraving captures the essence of these creatures with precision and artistry. This piece is a true representation of 18th-century scientific illustration at its finest. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the wonders that exist within our natural world. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly small or inconspicuous creatures possess their own unique charm and significance. Whether you appreciate entomology or simply admire the beauty found in wildlife, this print is sure to captivate your imagination and transport you back to a time when scientific exploration was intertwined with artistic expression.
