EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving by Johann Georg Klinger, titled "Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur," showcases the Oak Eggar Moth (Lasiocampa quercifolia) and the Poplar Lappet Moth (Gastropacha populifolia). The Oak Eggar Moth, depicted in images one and two, is a medium-sized moth with a wingspan of around 5 centimeters. Its forewings are covered in intricate patterns of brown, gray, and orange, while its hindwings are a lighter shade of brown with distinct black markings. The Oak Eggar Moth's larva, or caterpillar, feeds on the leaves of oak trees, and its pupa, or chrysalis, is encased in a silky cocoon. The Poplar Lappet Moth, illustrated in images three and four, is a larger moth with a wingspan of up to 8 centimeters. Its forewings are a rich brown color with distinctive white lappets, or flaps, along the edges. The hindwings are a paler brown with black markings. The Poplar Lappet Moth's larva feeds on the leaves of poplar and willow trees, and its pupa is encased in a silky cocoon with a distinctive brown and white pattern. This beautiful engraving, published in 1786 by Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers, is an important contribution to the field of entomology, particularly in the study of Lepidoptera, or butterflies and moths. The metamorphosis of insects, from larva to pupa to adult, was a subject of great fascination during the Enlightenment, and this engraving provides a detailed and accurate record of these two species. The intricate detail and hand-coloring make this a work of art as well as a scientific document.
