The intricate details of this leaf, part of the eighteenth natural history ensemble, come to life with a vibrant array of animals and plants. From delicate butterflies and beetles to buzzing flies and a curious caterpillar, the insect kingdom takes center stage in this composition. Snails gracefully traverse the foliage while fruits and flowers add bursts of color. Numbered at the top right as 18, this leaf is an exquisite piece from the seventh album featuring drawings of reptiles, amphibians, and various natural history ensembles. Created between 1596-1610 by Elias Verhulst or attributed to him, these watercolors were commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II during his reign.

Measuring approximately 181 mm in height and 286 mm in width on paper adorned with pencil sketches, chalk outlines are delicately brought to life using watercolor paint along with deck paint for added depth. Ink accents highlight specific features while lacquer coating adds a touch of brilliance.
