EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored lithograph showcases an enchanting assembly of exotic beetles, meticulously depicted in John O. Westwood's new edition of Dru Drury's Illustrations of Exotic Entomology, published by Bohn, London, in 1837. The intricately detailed image features eight distinct species: Ectrichodia barbicornis (1), Cerbus falx (2), Diactor latipes (3), Hammatocerus purcis (4), Cerbus sanctus (5), Raphigaster validus (6), Cerbus umbrosus (7), and Hammatocerus conspicillaris (8). The Ectrichodia barbicornis, with its distinctive long horns, stands proudly at the center, while the Cerbus falx boasts an impressive pair of curved mandibles. The Diactor latipes displays a striking pattern of blue and red spots, and the Hammatocerus purcis showcases a vibrant, iridescent exoskeleton. The Cerbus sanctus, Raphigaster validus, Cerbus umbrosus, and Hammatocerus conspicillaris each exhibit unique colorations and markings, adding to the overall allure of this enthralling collection. This remarkable artwork, a testament to the natural world's beauty and diversity, offers a glimpse into the 19th century's fascination with exotic insects. The intricate hand-coloring and precise lithography techniques employed by Westwood and his team bring these beetles to life, captivating the imagination and inspiring awe in viewers even to this day.
