EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a botanical board from the late 18th century, featuring an array of intriguing creatures. The first panel depicts a Surinam spider perched on a guajave plant, with a caterpillar cocoon nearby. In the second panel, we witness this very spider devouring a hummingbird, earning it the name Aranea avicularia Linn. The third panel introduces us to the Spider Hunter of Linneus in Suriname. Moving on to the fourth and fifth panels, we encounter fascinating specimens from Suriname - an ant and its nymph. These tiny creatures exhibit remarkable characteristics that contribute to our understanding of nature's three kingdoms: animals, minerals, and plants. The final panel portrays a winged ant, adding further curiosity to this collection. This artwork is part of "This q? It is more interesting and curious among animals and minerals to serve as intelligence to the general history of the three kingdoms of nature" by Buchoz. Photographed by Leonard de Selva and now housed in a private collection, this image transports us back in time while reminding us of nature's intricate beauty. With its detailed depictions and historical significance, this botanical board offers both aesthetic pleasure and educational value for admirers of natural history art.
