Brimstone Emerald Lizars Moth Moths Swallow Tail
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Victorian-era print, titled "Moths: Brimstone Moth, Swallow-tail Moth, and Large Emerald," is a beautiful example of the intricate and detailed illustrations produced by the renowned Scottish publishing house, David Bogue & Co., and their imprint, Lizars, in the late 19th century. Dated 1880, this print showcases three exquisite moth species: the Brimstone Moth, Swallow-tail Moth, and Large Emerald. The Brimstone Moth, also known as the Large Yellow Underwing, is depicted in the upper left corner of the print. With its wings folded, this moth displays a striking resemblance to a dead leaf, providing excellent camouflage in its natural habitat. However, when threatened, it reveals its vibrant yellow underwings, which are adorned with black markings. The Swallow-tail Moth, located in the upper right corner of the print, is a captivating creature with its long, pointed wings that mimic the shape of a swallow's tail. This moth's wings are a striking combination of black, white, and orange, making it a true visual delight. The Large Emerald Moth, depicted in the lower center of the print, is a rare and elusive species, known for its beautiful, iridescent green wings. This moth's wings are adorned with intricate patterns, making it a favorite among collectors and natural history enthusiasts. This print, produced by Lizars, is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and exceptional craftsmanship of the Victorian era. The intricate illustrations, coupled with the elegant design and historical significance, make this print a valuable addition to any collection of natural history or Victorian-era art. This print offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and diversity of the natural world as it was captured and preserved over a century ago.
