EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting metamorphosis of a Rothschildia hesperus moth on a branch of a sweet orange tree (Citrus sinensis). The image is derived from Maria Sybilla Merian's renowned work, "Over de voortteeling en wonderbaerlyke veranderingen der Surinaemsche insecten" (On the propagation and miraculous transformations of Surinamese insects), which was published in 1719. Merian, an accomplished naturalist and artist, meticulously captured the intricate details of this mesmerizing transformation. The hand-colored transfer engraving beautifully portrays the delicate stages through which the moth undergoes its metamorphosis. From a tiny egg to a caterpillar voraciously feeding on citrus leaves, it then forms a chrysalis before finally emerging as an exquisite adult moth. The Dutch edition of Merian's masterpiece, "Metamorphosis insectorum Surinamensium" (Insects of Suriname), has become highly regarded for its scientific accuracy and artistic brilliance. This particular print exemplifies her ability to merge scientific observation with artistic expression seamlessly. Displayed against a backdrop of lush green foliage and vibrant oranges hanging from the branches, this print serves as both an educational tool and an aesthetic delight. It reminds us of nature's incredible capacity for transformation and invites us to marvel at its wonders.
