EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print is a captivating representation of Curtis' British Entomology Plate 267, featuring the tricoloured Tillus unifasciatus beetle (Coleoptera: Tillinae) in its natural habitat. The beetle, with its distinctive black, red, and white markings, is shown gracefully perched on the yellow blooms of the Lathyrus aphaca plant, also known as yellow lathyrus. The intricate details of the beetle's body and the delicate petals of the plant are rendered with remarkable precision and accuracy, making this a true masterpiece of 19th-century entomological illustration. John Curtis, FLS, was a renowned English botanist and entomologist, whose groundbreaking work in the fields of botany and zoology led to the publication of his seminal work, "British Entomology," which spanned from the 1820s to the 1830s. This plate, which showcases both the beetle and its host plant, is a testament to Curtis' dedication to accurately documenting the natural world. The Tillus unifasciatus beetle, also known as the tricoloured or striped rove beetle, is a common species found in Europe and Asia. The Lathyrus aphaca plant, on the other hand, is a type of pea that is native to the Mediterranean region and is now cultivated in various parts of the world for its edible seeds and attractive yellow flowers. This print offers a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of the 19th century, providing a window into a time when the study of the natural world was a source of great fascination and discovery. The intricate details of the beetle and the plant, as well as the beautiful composition of the image, make this a must-have for any collection of historical entomological or botanical prints.
