EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the delicate beauty of the Uitstrekker met den rooten kop and alder moth (elzen-krammetje) perched gracefully on a branch. Created by Jacob l'Admiral for Naauwkeurige Waarneemingen omtrent de veranderingen van veele Insekten in 1774, this artwork is a testament to the meticulous observation and artistic skill of the naturalist.
The intricate details of the moth's wings and body are brought to life with vibrant colors, showcasing the artist's attention to accuracy and precision. The elegant composition of the print draws viewers into a world where nature's wonders are celebrated through art.
As part of a second edition with additional plates added by M. Houttuyn, this print exemplifies the dedication to scientific study and visual representation that was prevalent during the Enlightenment period. It serves as both a scientific illustration and a work of art, blurring the lines between observation and interpretation.
Through this image, we are reminded of the endless fascination that insects hold for us, inviting us to appreciate their beauty and complexity in ways we may not have considered before. This print is truly a treasure from an era when curiosity about nature drove exploration and discovery.
