EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a hand-coloured etching titled "Page 51. Plate 13 Bombyx Exposita Lewin / allied to. . . 1803-04" by John William Lewin, an Australian artist from the late 18th century. The artwork, housed in the Mitchell Library at the State Library of New South Wales, measures approximately 20.6x15.7 cm. Lewin's masterpiece is part of his comprehensive collection on natural history, specifically focusing on eighteen nondescript moths. Each moth has been meticulously depicted and described after being collected and engraved by the talented artist himself. In this particular image, we are presented with a stunning representation of one such moth in flight. Its delicate wings gracefully carry it through the air as it hovers near a branch. The intricate details captured in this etching allow us to marvel at its beauty and appreciate the wonders of Australia's fauna. The inclusion of caterpillars and larvae within this work emphasizes Lewin's dedication to showcasing not only adult insects but also their life cycles. This holistic approach adds depth and scientific value to his artistic endeavor. As we gaze upon this enchanting piece, we are transported back in time to witness nature's intricacies through Lewin's skilled craftsmanship. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly ordinary creatures possess extraordinary beauty when observed closely – an everlasting testament to both artistry and zoological exploration.
