EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of various beetles, each with its own unique characteristics and colors. The Spanish fly beetle, Lytta vesicatoria (1), stands out with its vibrant green hue and delicate wings. Next to it is the wasp beetle, Clytus arietis (2), which boasts striking yellow and black stripes resembling those of a wasp. Moving on, we encounter Altica equinoctialis (3), a small but charming beetle known for its metallic blue sheen. Clytra quadripunctata (4) follows suit with its distinctive markings - four bright spots adorning its dark body. The longhorn beetles take center stage in this composition; Chlorida festiva (5) exhibits an elegant combination of black and white patterns while Trachyderes succinctus (6) captivates us with its elongated body and bold coloring. Rendered in handcolored stipple engraving by Pancrace Bessa from Charles Malos Les Insectes, this artwork transports us back to 1820 Paris when entomology studies were at their peak. Each detail has been meticulously captured, allowing us to appreciate the intricacy of these miniature creatures. This print serves as a reminder that even within the smallest corners of our world lies immense beauty waiting to be discovered. It invites us to marvel at nature's diversity and reminds us that there is always more than meets the eye when it comes to insects like these fascinating beetles.
