EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the intricate beauty of nature in exquisite detail. The image features a Noctuelle des Potagers, Brightline brown-eye, Lacanobia oleracea, basard wasp and housefly delicately perched on a French marigold flower, Tagetes patula. Each insect is depicted with precision and accuracy, showcasing their unique characteristics and markings.
Created by Jacob l'Admiral for Naauwkeurige Waarneemingen omtrent de veranderingen van veele Insekten (Accurate Descriptions of the Metamorphoses of Insects) in 1774, this artwork is a testament to the scientific curiosity and artistic skill of the time. Meticulously drawn and etched, this print offers a glimpse into the world of entomology during the 18th century.
The vibrant colors used to handcolour this engraving bring each creature and flower to life, adding depth and dimension to the composition. The juxtaposition of delicate insects against the bold petals of the marigold creates a visually striking contrast that draws viewers in.
As part of an expanded second edition with additional plates by M. Houttuyn, this print exemplifies both scientific rigor and aesthetic appeal. It serves as a reminder of the rich history of natural illustration and exploration that continues to inspire artists and scientists alike today.
