EDITORS COMMENTS

The delicate details of their wings are brought to life in vibrant hues, showcasing the remarkable patterns and colors that make these insects so mesmerizing.
Created by John O. Westwood for Dru Drury's "Illustrations of Exotic Entomology" in 1837, this print is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of natural history illustrations from that era. Each brushstroke expertly conveys the elegance and grace of these creatures, inviting viewers to marvel at their ethereal beauty.
The Paris peacock butterfly with its iridescent blue markings and striking eyespots exudes an air of sophistication and mystery. In contrast, the mottled emigrant displays a more subtle charm with its soft yellow hues and intricate veining on its wings.
