Beautifully rendered insects from Edward Donovan's work Natural History of British Insects, published in 1797. Donovan (1768-1837) was a natural historian and artist who devoted his time and fortune to forming a large collection of natural history specimens, compiling a number of books on the subject. Although the plates are not signed, they were drawn, colored, and likely engraved by him. Only a few are plain and if Donovan did not color the remainder in all copies himself, he supervised the work. Matted ready-to-frame dimensions are 11" x 14".
