EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of nature, featuring two remarkable creatures in their various life stages. At the top, we are introduced to the Brassolis sophorae butterfly, with its pupa and larva caterpillar. The intricate details of each stage are brought to life through the handcoloured steel engraving technique employed by French School artists in the 19th century. Beneath it lies a majestic forest giant owl known as Caligo eurilochus. Its imposing presence is captured flawlessly, showcasing its grandeur and elegance. This illustration was meticulously copied from Felix-Edouard Guerin-Menevilles Dictionnaire Pittoresque d Histoire Naturelle, ensuring accuracy and authenticity. Printed by F. Chardon from Achille Comtes Musee d Histoire Naturelle in Paris back in 1854, this piece holds historical significance within the field of zoology and entomology. It serves as a testament to our fascination with wildlife throughout history. The combination of these two extraordinary creatures creates a harmonious balance between delicate grace and commanding strength. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the wonders that exist beyond our everyday lives - an invitation to explore and appreciate the diversity found within our natural world. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also sparks curiosity about these magnificent species while paying homage to those who dedicated themselves to studying them centuries ago.
