EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored steel engraving, created by the Pauquet brothers and based on an illustration by Alexis Nicolas Noel for Hippolyte Lucas's "Histoire Naturelle des Lepidopteres d'Europe" (Natural History of European Butterflies), published in 1864, showcases three stunning species of European butterflies: the Large White (Pieris brassicae), the Clouded Yellow (Colias croceus), and the Black-veined White (Aporia crataegi). The Large White, with its pristine white wings speckled with black, is a common sight in gardens and fields across Europe. The Clouded Yellow, with its orange-yellow wings adorned with black veins and cloud-like patterns, is a migratory species that can be found in southern Europe and Asia. The Black-veined White, with its intricate pattern of black veins on its wings, is a small and delicate butterfly that can be found in woodlands and hedgerows. The meticulous attention to detail in this engraving allows us to appreciate the intricacies of their wing structures and the subtle variations in their coloration. This beautiful work of art is a testament to the natural beauty and diversity of European butterflies and the skill of the Pauquet brothers and Alexis Nicolas Noel in capturing their essence.
