EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century print showcases the Pieris rapae, commonly known as the cabbage white butterfly. These small, elegant insects are members of the Brassicaceae family, also known as the cruciferae or mustard family, and are characterized by their white wings speckled with black veins. The Pieris rapae is a eudicot, or a flowering plant that belongs to the angiospermae order, and is part of the superorder Rosids. The cabbage white butterfly is a frequent visitor to gardens, particularly those with brassicaceous plants, such as cabbage, broccoli, and cauliflower. The adults feed on nectar from various flowers, while their caterpillars, which are voracious feeders, can cause significant damage to the crops by consuming the leaves. This is the reason for their alternative name, cabbage whites. This intricately detailed print, which dates back to the 1700s, is a testament to the natural history curiosity of the time. The Pieris rapae was first described by Carl Linnaeus in his renowned work, "Systema Naturae," published between 1758 and 1762. Linnaeus classified the butterfly as a hexapod, or an invertebrate with six legs, and placed it within the order Insecta, which includes all insects. The Pieris rapae is an essential part of the natural world, playing a role in the food chain as both a herbivore and a prey species. This print not only highlights the beauty of these delicate creatures but also serves as a reminder of the intricate relationships that exist between different organisms within an ecosystem.
