EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured steel engraving depicts the Cardinal butterfly, Argynnis pandora, in both its dorsal and ventral views. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of the engraving bring out the beauty of this exquisite insect. The Cardinal butterfly, also known as the Painted Lady, is a migratory species that can be found in Europe, North Africa, and Asia. It is characterized by its bright orange wings with black spots and borders, and its undersides are a paler orange with brown spots. The engraving was created by the Pauquet brothers, renowned for their meticulous and accurate depictions of natural subjects. They based their work on an illustration by Alexis Nicolas Noel, which was originally published in Hippolyte Lucas's Natural History of European Butterflies, Histoire Naturelle des Lepidopteres d'Europe, in 1864. The Natural History of European Butterflies was a groundbreaking work that documented over 2,500 species of European butterflies and moths, making it an essential resource for entomologists and naturalists of the time. The Cardinal butterfly is not only a visual delight but also plays an essential role in its ecosystem as a pollinator. Its bright colors serve as a warning to predators that it is distasteful or toxic, making it an effective defense mechanism. This beautiful and fascinating creature continues to captivate the imagination of people around the world and remains an important subject of scientific study and conservation efforts.
