EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate LXVIII" of Joris Hoefnagel's "Animalia Quadrvpedia et Reptilia (Terra)" is a stunning work of art from the late 16th century, showcasing an intricate and detailed illustration of various quadrupeds and reptiles native to the European continent. This masterpiece, created by the renowned Flemish artist Joris Hoefnagel around 1575-1580, is a testament to the natural history knowledge of the time. The illustration is a vibrant watercolor and gouache painting on vellum, framed within an ornate oval border in gold. The central focus of the plate is a spurge hawkmoth (Macroglossum stellatarum), also known as the mullein moth, with its wings spread wide, displaying its intricate and colorful pattern. Surrounding the moth are various caterpillars, including a hawk moth caterpillar, which can be identified by its distinctive spines and markings. The plate also features other quadrupeds and reptiles, each meticulously drawn and colored, showcasing Hoefnagel's exceptional talent and attention to detail. The animals are depicted in their natural habitats, adding to the overall beauty and realism of the illustration. This plate is an important piece of heritage art, reflecting the scientific curiosity and artistic prowess of the Renaissance period. It can be found in the collections of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The illustration is a reminder of the rich natural history of Europe during the 16th century and the importance of preserving and celebrating such works of art and literature.
