EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, taken from Carl Hoffmann's renowned "Book of the World," published in Stuttgart in 1849, showcases an enchanting assembly of four distinct butterfly species belonging to the Jezebel family. The Jezebel, Delias eucharis (Papilio hyparete), graces the image in the center, its vibrant orange wings adorned with black spots and intricate patterns. To its left, the Lampedia, Papilio lampedia, flaunts its striking black and white wings, while the Redbase Jezebel, Delias pasithoe (Papilio porsenna), is depicted on the right, its wings boasting a captivating blend of red and black hues. Nestled among these exquisite specimens is the Crimson Tip, Colotis eborea (Papilio eborea), a smaller butterfly displaying brilliant red and black wings with distinctive white tips. Each butterfly is meticulously rendered in rich colors, bringing their intricate patterns and delicate features to life. Originating from India, these butterflies are a testament to the natural world's beauty and diversity. Hoffmann's "Book of the World" was a groundbreaking work, documenting a vast array of species from around the globe, and this image remains a stunning example of the detailed and accurate illustrations it contained. This work of art not only serves as a visual feast for the eyes but also as a reminder of the importance of preserving the natural world and the myriad of creatures that inhabit it.
