EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century print showcases the Brown-tail Moth, Euproctis chrysorrhoea (also known as Phalaena chrysorrhoea or Phalaena auriflua), as depicted by the renowned naturalist, Johann Christian Friedrich Höhnscheidt, in his collection "Die Schmetterlinge" or "The Butterflies." Dated 1786, this illustration is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy that characterized the natural history art of the time. The Brown-tail Moth is a native of Europe, Asia, and North Africa, and is easily recognizable by its distinctive brown wings, which bear golden-yellow spots along the edges. The moth's body is also brown, with a paler head and thorax, and it is named for the long, brown hairs that trail from its hindwings. The Brown-tail Moth undergoes a complete metamorphosis, with four stages in its life cycle: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The larvae, or caterpillars, are notoriously venomous and can cause irritation and blisters to those who come into contact with them. This print, however, captures the beauty and elegance of the adult moth, with its intricately patterned wings and graceful form. An essential addition to any collection of historical natural history art, this print is a reminder of the fascination and wonder that the natural world has inspired throughout the ages.
