EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured etching captures the delicate beauty of Little Melochie, also known as Mulukhiyah or jute, Corchorus olitorius, alongside a vibrant red admiral butterfly, Vanessa atalanta. Created by Pierre Joseph Buchoz in 1776 as part of his 'Precious and illuminated collection of the most beautiful and curious flowers', this botanical illustration is a true masterpiece.
The intricate details of the flower and butterfly are brought to life through Buchoz's skilled engraving technique and careful handcolouring. The contrast between the soft petals of the Melochie flower and the bold markings on the wings of the butterfly creates a captivating composition that draws you in.
As you gaze upon this print, you can almost feel yourself transported to a lush garden filled with exotic blooms and fluttering butterflies. The fusion of Chinese influence with European botanical artistry adds an element of chinoiserie to this piece, making it both unique and timeless.
Whether you're a lover of natural history or simply appreciate fine art, this enchanting etching is sure to bring joy and wonder into your home. Display it proudly on your wall and let its beauty inspire you each day.
