EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Natural Flies and their Larvae, Artificial Flies for the Months" takes us back to the enchanting English countryside of the 19th century. The color lithograph showcases a beautiful illustration from Henry Downes Miles' book, "English Country Life" published around 1880. The image depicts a rural landscape with lush green pastures and a serene rural scene that transports us to a bygone era. In this idyllic setting, we observe various natural flies and their larvae alongside artificial flies specifically designed for each month of the year. The intricate details in this artwork bring these tiny creatures to life, showcasing their vibrant colors and delicate features. From caterpillars crawling on leaves to buzzing insects hovering above flowers, this composition captures the diversity of wildlife found in nature. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this print also hints at leisure activities enjoyed during that time period. The mention of ball games suggests that people would gather together in parlors or open fields to engage in playful competitions. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, it serves as a reminder of our connection with nature and how it has been an integral part of human existence throughout history. It invites us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the importance of preserving our natural world for future generations.
