About the Item
Title: European Garden Spider Anatomy: Hand-Colored Engraving from Bertuch's "Bilderbuch für Kinder" (1798)
Description: This detailed hand-colored copperplate engraving from Friedrich Johann Bertuch's "Bilderbuch für Kinder" (1798) illustrates the European garden spider (*Araneus diadematus*). It features a black variety (Fig. 1), a red variety hanging from a silk thread (Figs. 2 and 3), a close-up of the head showing eyes and mandibles (Fig. 4), silk spinnerets with fibers (Fig. 5), and silk tubes (Fig. 6).
This engraving beautifully combines scientific accuracy and artistic craftsmanship, making it an essential piece for collectors and natural history enthusiasts. Bertuch's work is renowned for its 12-volume series illustrating various aspects of the natural world, science, and art in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
Condition: Good condition with vibrant hand-coloring, sharp engraving details, and intact edges. Slight age-toning and minimal foxing do not detract from its appeal. Perfect for display or collection.
