Each insect is meticulously numbered from 1 to 39, with the number seven elegantly displayed in the top right corner. This artwork is part of the sixth album containing remarkable drawings of fish, shells, and insects. Commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II during the late 16th to early 17th century, this masterpiece was created by Anselmus Boetius de Boodt in Prague between 1596 and 1610. The intricate details are skillfully captured using various mediums such as paper, pencil, chalk, watercolor paint, deck paint, ink, and pen. The leaf not only presents these bloodless animals but also provides an educational experience through its accompanying explanations written in Dutch, Latin, and French. It serves as a valuable resource for studying entomology and appreciating the diversity within nature's tiny creatures. Measuring at approximately 283 mm in height and 184 mm in width, this print offers a glimpse into the world of insects that fascinated Emperor Rudolf II. Its historical significance lies within one of twelve albums commissioned by him that documented animals birds and plants known around the year 1600.
