Cramer - Pair of Butterfly & Moth Engravings
This detailed, hand-colored engraving is from Pieter Cramer and Caspar Stoll’s De uitlandsche Kapellen voorkomende in de drie Waereld-Deelen... Papillons exotiques des trois parties du monde l’Asie, l’Afrique et l’Amerique. The work was published in Amsterdam and Utrecht between 1775 and 1784 b y S. J. Baalde and Barthelemy Wild. The work was likely of an edition of 500 published based on the subscribers list.
Pieter Cramer was the primary author, while Casper Stoll completed the project after Cramer’s passing in 1777. Gerrit Lambertz was the commissioned colorist for the work. Each hand-colored engraving featured exotic butterflies and moths. Papillons Exotiques is the first work on entomology which was arranged according to the Linnean method. Over 1700 species were depicted in the work.
The work is in very good to excellent condition. There may be a few minor marks or imperfections to be expected with age. Please review the image carefully for condition and contact us with any questions.
