EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of the Hebe Tiger Moth, Arctia festiva, also known as the Cream-Spotted Tiger or the Hebe Epicallia. The image, created by the skilled hand of Johann Carl Bock in 1786, is taken from Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' renowned publication, "Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur" or "Butterflies in Representations according to Nature." The Hebe Tiger Moth is a member of the Lepidoptera order, specifically the Arctiidae family, and is native to Europe and Asia. The moth's wingspan ranges from 6 to 8 centimeters, and its wings are adorned with striking cream-colored spots against a dark background. The forewings bear distinctive black "V" shapes, while the hindwings exhibit a series of cream-colored lines and spots. The life cycle of the Hebe Tiger Moth is intriguing. The moth begins its life as an egg, which hatches into a caterpillar or larva. The caterpillar undergoes a process of metamorphosis, forming a pupa or chrysalis, before emerging as an adult moth. The caterpillar feeds on various plants, including the leaves of the Common Nettle, Urtica dioica. The Hebe Tiger Moth is an essential study for entomologists and naturalists, and this stunning engraving offers a glimpse into the natural history of this fascinating creature. The intricate details of the moth's wings and body are beautifully rendered, making this print a treasure for any collection of historical natural history or entomology.
