EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts the Vine or Silver-striped Hawk-moth, Hippotion celerio, a stunning and intricately patterned insect belonging to the Sphingidae family. The illustration, drawn and engraved by the skilled hands of Richard Polydore Nodder, was published in George Shaw and Frederick Nodder's The Naturalist's Miscellany in London in 1806. The Vine Hawk-moth is native to Europe, North Africa, and Asia, and is easily recognizable by its distinctive silver stripes that run along the length of its body. This moth is known for its remarkable transformation from caterpillar to adult. The caterpillar, or larva, is a voracious feeder, feeding on various types of vines and shrubs. Once it has reached maturity, it forms a pupa, or chrysalis, in which it undergoes metamorphosis. The adult Vine Hawk-moth is a sight to behold, with its wingspan reaching up to 10 centimeters. Its wings are adorned with intricate patterns and colors, making it an essential addition to any natural history collection. The moth's long proboscis is used to reach deep into flowers to feed on nectar. This beautiful illustration is a testament to the natural world's intricacy and beauty, and it serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and studying the natural world. The attention to detail in the engraving captures the essence of the Vine Hawk-moth, making it a valuable addition to any collection of natural history art.
