About the Item

Polyphemus Moth of North America (Antheraea polyphemus female) in Dogwood Blossoms Limited Edition Lithograph. Ed. # 163 of 650 1991 Series #11. Acid-Free Paper. Born in Brooklyn in 1925, John Cody began at age five admiring and drawing moths: the polyphemus, io, cecropia, promethean and others. Not collecting and killing: admiring, drawing and falling in love with them. After college and art courses at Pratt Institute, Cody went to the Johns Hopkins’ Department of Art as Applied to Medicine and became a medical and scientific illustrator. The American Museum of Natural History in New York recognized this when they honored him with a one-man show. Similarly, the Audubon Society recognized it….as does an elite group of art connoisseurs who collect paintings and prints from the “Audubon of moths.” HONORS AND AWARDS: • One-man show at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. • Smithsonian, National Museum of Natural History, Portraits of Great Saturniid Moths: January 15, 1990 – June 1, 1990, Washington D.C. • Journal of Research on the Lepidoptera. In 1995, a newly discovered moth, a chocolate-brown specimen found only in northern Pakistan, was formally named Saturnia codyi in honor of Dr. John Cody (Hays, Kansas, U.S.A.) in recognition of his work through art, writings, and lectures to bring awareness to the public of the need to preserve habitats of Saturniidae. • Governor’s Arts Award in 1997 for Individual Artist Lifetime Achievement Award in the State of Kansas. • The Guild of Natural Science Illustrators Special Service Award 2012. • Johns Hopkins, Department of Art as Applied to Medicine, 2013 Ranice W. Crosby Distinguished Achievement Awardee
