This reproduction of a naturalist engraving presents a selection of beetles, including the Brenthid of Temminck and the Splendid Entimus. The composition highlights the diversity of shapes and frames of these insects, complemented by detailed morphological studies characteristic of ancient scientific illustration.
The source document is the Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle, a major work by Charles d'Orbigny published between 1841 and 1849. This publication marked the history of scientific publishing through the exceptional quality of its iconography, served by the best draftsmen and engravers of the 19th century.
Intended for amateurs of entomology and classical iconography, this illustration bears witness to a time when the observation of living organisms was at the heart of the exploration of the world. It constitutes an erudite object of contemplation, reflecting the aesthetics and rigor of old cabinets of curiosities.
