EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving by Daniel Rabel, based on a botanical illustration by the renowned artist Maria Sibylla Merian, showcases a captivating scene of a Globe Flower (Trollius europaeus) in full bloom, surrounded by various species of buttercups (Ranunculus glacialis and others). The delicate beauty of the flowers is contrasted by the intriguing presence of a diverse array of creatures, both flora and fauna. In the foreground, a curious Stargazer Butterfly (Katheostoma leve) lands on the petals of the Globe Flower, its long proboscis reaching deep into the flower's nectar. Nearby, a Longsnout Boarfish (Pentaceropsis recurvirostris) and a Lady Kathethostoma (Katheostoma recurvirostris) glide through the water, their elongated snouts and intricate patterns adding to their allure. Among the finned creatures, a Catfish (Ichthyology) and a Pig-faced Catfish (Histiopterus chromis) can be spotted, their unique appearances a testament to the wonders of the natural world. In the background, a Common Buttercup (Ranunculus spp.) provides a vibrant backdrop, while a Tasmanian Tiger Katheostoma (Louisa anne Meredith) and its foes, the Tasmanian Devil (Sarcophilus harrisii) and a Ladybird Beetle (Coccinellidae), engage in a fascinating battle. This illustration, taken from Pierre Joseph Buchoz's Histoire Generale des Insectes de Surinam et de tout L Europe, Troisieme edition revue, corrigee et considerablement augmentee par M. Buchoz, Paris, 1771, is a testament to the intricate relationships between various species and the beauty of the natural world. The careful attention to detail and the delicate hand-coloring make this a truly stunning work of art, showcasing the talents of both Merian and Rabel.
