EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite 18th-century artwork of the Venus flytrap, a fascinating carnivorous plant known for its unique ability to trap and consume insects. Painted by John Miller in 1772, this watercolour and bodycolour on vellum masterpiece is now housed at the prestigious Natural History Museum in the United Kingdom. The delicate brushstrokes beautifully capture the intricate details of this botanical wonder. The vibrant hues bring to life the vivid green leaves adorned with menacingly sharp teeth-like structures that give it its name. This illustration serves as a testament to both the artistic skill of Miller and his dedication to accurately depicting nature's marvels. Steeped in historical significance, this artwork not only represents a snapshot of botany from centuries past but also highlights our ongoing fascination with understanding and appreciating Earth's diverse flora. It serves as a reminder of how scientific illustrations played an essential role in documenting species before photography became widely available.
