EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph showcases the Blackthorn tree (Prunus spinosa), also known as the sloe plum tree, adorned with an enchanting assembly of brown and black hairstreak butterflies and a Rhagades pruni moth. The Blackthorn tree is a small, thorny shrub native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia, characterized by its white flowers that bloom in early spring. The brown hairstreak butterflies (Thecla betulae) are seen perched on the tree's leaves and branches, their wings displaying intricate patterns of brown and orange. These butterflies are known for their distinctive hair-like scales on their wings, which provide excellent camouflage against the tree's bark. The black hairstreak butterflies (Satyrium pruni) can also be observed in the image, with their dark wings and white spots. These butterflies are smaller than the brown hairstreaks and are often found in the same habitats. The Rhagades pruni moth (Rhagades pruni) is a striking moth with its wings adorned with intricate patterns of brown and yellow. The moth's larvae, or caterpillars, feed on the leaves of the Blackthorn tree, while the pupa stage takes place within a silken cocoon. This beautiful illustration is taken from Carl Hoffmann's "Buch der Welt," published in Stuttgart in 1848. The meticulous attention to detail and the vibrant colors of the handcoloured lithograph capture the essence of these fascinating insects and their host plant, the Blackthorn tree.
