EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Johann Carl Bock for Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers' Die Schmetterlinge in Abbildungen nach der Natur, published in Erlangen in 1786, showcases an intriguing assembly of six different Lepidoptera species. The central figure is the Argentine Tussock Moth, Phalaena argentina, also known as the Flame Brocade or Spatalia argentina, with its vibrant orange and black wings adorned with intricate patterns. To the left, the Archers Dart Moth, Agrotis vestigialis, or the Pale-tussock Moth, Calliteara pudibunda, can be seen, named for its resemblance to an archer's dart with its slender body and pointed abdomen. Two additional moths are depicted in the upper left corner. The first is the Flame Moth, Trigonophora flammea, characterized by its fiery orange wings and black markings. The second is the Phalaena moth, whose identity remains uncertain due to the lack of clear labeling in the engraving. The intricate details and precise coloring of this engraving provide a stunning representation of these moths' natural beauty. The metamorphosis of these insects from caterpillars to pupae and eventually to adults is a fascinating aspect of entomology, and this artwork offers a glimpse into the natural world of the late 18th century. The captivating artwork not only serves as a testament to the artistic skill of Johann Carl Bock but also highlights the importance of documenting and preserving the natural world through illustration.
