EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing transformation of a Pomelo shaddock Citrus maxima moth, also known as Urania leilus. The image is derived from Maria Sybilla Merian's renowned work "Over de voortteeling en wonderbaerlyke veranderingen der Surinaemsche insecten" (On the propagation and marvelous transformations of Surinamese insects), published in 1719. The delicate hand-colored engraving, created by Joseph Mulder, beautifully captures the intricate details of both the citrus fruit and the moth's metamorphosis. The vibrant colors bring to life this extraordinary natural phenomenon that occurs within the Surinamese ecosystem. Maria Sibylla Merian, a prominent Dutch entomologist and artist during the 17th century, dedicated her life to studying and illustrating various species of insects. Her meticulous observations and artistic talent revolutionized scientific illustration at that time. Through this enchanting print, we are transported into Merian's world as she unravels nature's wonders for us to behold. The juxtaposition of a seemingly ordinary pomelo or shaddock with an ethereal moth undergoing its miraculous transformation serves as a reminder of nature's boundless beauty and constant evolution. This particular edition is part of "Metamorphosis insectorum Surinamensium" (Insects of Suriname), which remains one of Merian's most celebrated works. Its significance lies not only in its scientific contributions but also in
