EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vibrant collection of Chinese insects, beautifully captured in a coloured engraving. Created by the German School in the 19th century, this artwork is part of a private collection and holds historical significance. The image originates from "A Bilderbuch für Kinder" (Picture Book for Children) published between 1790-1830 by Friedrich Justin Bertuch. In this enchanting composition, we are introduced to various fascinating creatures from the insect kingdom. Among them are the red-winged locust, adorned with its striking colors; the banded jewel beetle and its intricate patterns; and the mesmerizing golden web spider. We also encounter the green maybug, known for its emerald hue, as well as other remarkable species such as China peranthus and cricket. The attention to detail in this engraving is truly remarkable - each delicate wing, intricate pattern, and unique characteristic has been meticulously depicted. Through this artwork, we gain insight into both scientific observation and artistic interpretation of these extraordinary creatures. Preserved through time by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen and made available through Bridgeman Images' fine art finder platform, this print not only celebrates nature's diversity but also pays homage to centuries-old craftsmanship. It serves as a testament to our fascination with insects while reminding us of their vital role within our ecosystem.
