This reproduction of an entomological plate illustrates a selection of lepidoptera, including the Euploea juventa and the Junonia almana. The artwork details complex wing patterns and insect development stages, offering a vibrant chromatic palette combining orange, yellow, and black on a neutral background.
Designed for Charles d'Orbigny's Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle, this 19th-century engraving bears witness to an exceptional scientific synthesis effort. The precision of the chromatic study and the hierarchy of visual elements served at the time as a reference for species identification.
Intended for amateurs of entomology and natural history aesthetics, this plate constitutes a refined documentary piece. It allows one to appreciate the diversity of the insect world through a historical and scientific prism, ideal for a nature-inspired decoration.
