1. Title: "A Triumph of Wings: The Poplar Admiral, Common Glider, and Hungarian Glider" This exquisite handcoloured steel engraving, created by the Pauquet brothers and based on an illustration by Alexis Nicolas Noel for Hippolyte Lucas's "Natural History of European Butterflies" (Histoire Naturelle des Lepidopteres d'Europe), published in 1864, showcases three captivating species of European butterflies: the Poplar Admiral (Limenitis populi), Common Glider (Neptis sappho), and Hungarian Glider (Neptis rivularis). The Poplar Admiral, with its striking black wings adorned with orange and white spots, is depicted in the center of the image. Its wingspan can reach up to 8 centimeters, making it a prominent sight in woodland habitats. The species is known for its distinctive behavior, as the males fly low over water to attract females. To the left, the Common Glider, with its vibrant orange wings and black borders, is depicted in a graceful position, showcasing its elegant wings. This species, also known as the Small Tortoiseshell, is native to Europe and Asia, and its wingspan can reach up to 6 centimeters. The Common Glider is known for its ability to fly at high altitudes and its preference for sunny spots. On the right, the Hungarian Glider, with its intricate black and orange wings, is depicted in a more reserved pose. This species, also known as the Large Tortoiseshell, is native to Europe and Asia, and its wingspan can reach up to 7 centimeters. The Hungarian Glider is known for its preference for wooded habitats and its ability to fly at low altitudes. This beautiful engraving not only captures the intricate details of these three species but also transports us back in time to the 19th century, when natural history was a source of fascination and inspiration. The delicate handcolouring adds a touch of artistry to the scientific documentation, making this a true masterpiece.
