EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph showcases an enchanting collection of exotic moths, captured in intricate detail during the Victorian era. The centerpiece of this image is the Promethea silkmoth, Callosamia promethea (Saturnia promethea), represented both dorsally and ventrally. The female moth, with its vibrant orange and black wings, is a sight to behold. The short-lined chocolate moth, Argyrostrotis anilis (Noctua anilis), is depicted in the upper left corner, its wings adorned with intricate patterns of brown and white. In the lower right, the figured tiger moth, Grammia figurata (Nemeophila figurata), displays its striking orange and black wings, adorned with distinctive white spots and lines. The Promethea silkmoth is a large, beautiful moth native to North America, known for its silky cocoons. The short-lined chocolate moth is also native to North America and is a common sight in forests and woodlands. The figured tiger moth, on the other hand, is native to Central and South America, and is known for its distinctive wing patterns that mimic the eyespots of predators, providing a defense mechanism against predators. This exquisite lithograph is a testament to the natural beauty and diversity of the moth world, and a reminder of the fascination that these creatures held for naturalists and collectors during the 19th century. Produced in the new edition of Dru Drury's Illustrations of Exotic Entomology, published by Bohn, London, in 1837, this work of art showcases the meticulous attention to detail and the artistic skill of the time.
