EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Johann Carl Bock after Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur (The Butterflies in Representations according to Nature), published in Erlangen in 1786, showcases a captivating collection of five different species of moths, each with distinctive markings and patterns. The first moth depicted is the Flounced Chestnut (Agrochola helvola), characterized by its flounced wings and chestnut-colored body. The second and third moths are the Dotted Chestnuts (Conistra rubiginea), which display intricate dots on their wings. The fourth moth is the Brown-line Bright-eye (Mythimna conigera), known for its striking eyespots and brown lines on its wings. The fifth moth is the Treble Lines (Charanyca trigrammica), which boasts three distinct lines on its forewings. These moths belong to various genera within the Lepidoptera order, including Phalaena (silk moths), Noctua (owlet moths), Praetexta (pupa case-bearers), Fucata (waved-line moths), Lythargyria (waved-line moths), Barred, Sallow, Tileacea, Aurago, Clay, and Ferrago. This engraving is an essential contribution to the field of entomology, providing an accurate representation of these fascinating creatures during the time when natural history illustrations were crucial for scientific advancement. The meticulous attention to detail and the vibrant colors of this print make it a beautiful addition to any collection, showcasing the allure and intricacy of the natural world.
