EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph depicts five exquisite species of African butterflies: the Pink Acraea or Acraea caecilia (1, 2), the Large Spotted Acraea or Acraea zetes (3, 4), and the Yellow Clearwing or Scada karschina (5, 6). The Pink Acraea, also known as the Hypatia or Caecilia, is a medium-sized butterfly with pink wings edged in black and white. The Large Spotted Acraea, also known as the Zetes or Menippe, is a large butterfly with wings adorned with large black spots and a yellow border. The Yellow Clearwing, also known as the Karschina or Heliconia, is a small butterfly with transparent wings that reveal its intricate veining and the bright yellow body of the insect. This beautiful artwork is taken from John O. Westwood's new edition of Dru Drury's Illustrations of Exotic Entomology, published by Bohn, London, in 1837. The meticulous detail and vibrant colours of the lithograph provide an accurate representation of the butterflies' natural appearance, making it an invaluable resource for entomological research and appreciation. The butterflies are shown resting on various flowers, including Heliconia and Gazoria, adding to the overall beauty and harmony of the image. The intricate veining and patterns on the wings of each species are highlighted by the delicate handcolouring, showcasing the unique characteristics of each species. This artwork not only serves as a testament to the natural beauty of these African butterflies but also to the skill and artistry of the lithographers and colourists of the time. It is a reminder of the rich biodiversity of the natural world and the importance of preserving and documenting it for future generations.
