EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of peculiar insects, beautifully captured in a coloured engraving by the German School in the 19th century. The image is part of a private collection and originates from "A Bilderbuch für Kinder" (Picture Book for Children) published between 1790-1830 by Friedrich Justin Bertuch. The intricate details of these fascinating creatures are brought to life through this artwork. From the pale brown shield bug to the stone centipede with its menacing pincers, each insect possesses its own unique characteristics that make it truly remarkable. Among them, we can also find the Indian Scolopender, the blind bug found in gardens, and even an earth-dwelling species that loves sandy beaches. The engraving features various types of insects including Cermatia livida, Lithobius forsicatus, Scolopendra morsitans, Cryptops hortensis, and Geophilus maritimus. Each one is meticulously depicted with precision and accuracy. This print not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also offers us a glimpse into nature's incredible diversity. It reminds us that even within seemingly small or insignificant creatures like insects lies a world full of wonder waiting to be explored. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly preserved this historical gem from ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's German publication. This out-of-copyright image allows us to appreciate both the beauty of these peculiar insects and the artistry behind their representation
