EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the beauty and intricacy of various species of scorpions from around the world. The focal point is the Giant forest scorpion, Heterometrus indus, with its impressive size and distinctive features. Surrounding it are other species such as Scorpio afer and Scorpio americus, each showcasing their unique characteristics.
Created in 1771 by G.W. Knorr after an illustration by Christian Nicolaus Kleemann, this print is part of Georg Wolfgang Knorr's Deliciae Naturae Selectae collection. The detailed engravings bring these fascinating creatures to life, highlighting their diversity and complexity.
These specimens were originally part of a Wunderkammer or Cabinet of Curiosities owned by Dr. Christoph Jacob Trew in Nuremberg. These cabinets were popular in the 16th to 18th centuries and housed a wide range of natural history objects for study and display.
This print serves as a reminder of the wonder and awe inspired by nature's creations. It invites viewers to appreciate the beauty and diversity found within the animal kingdom, while also reflecting on the historical significance of scientific exploration and discovery.
