Amsterdam Johannes Sluyter 1774. . Group of six copper engravings with fine original colour showing the metamorphosis of butterflies moths and other flying insects. Beautiful delineations of the metamorphoses of butterflies continuing the fine Dutch tradition of insect illustration begun by Maria Sibylla Merian. L'Admiral 1700-1770 was a gifted amateur entomologist who had studied insects since the age of ten. A year after his death his collection of butterflies and other insects was sold in auction. This included the original copper plates from the first edition 1740 of of his work Naauwkeurige Waarneemingen omtrent de Veranderingen van Veele Insekten . These were augmented by a further eight plates which had been borrowed from L'Admiral by Dr.M Houttuyn for the butterfly section of his edition of Linnaeus. Thus the 1774 edition was the first complete edition of L'Admiral's engravings. In total L'Admiral illustrated seventy metamorphoses on thirty-three etched plates. These engravings show the butterflies their larvae and food plants. L'Admiral drew and etched all the plates themselves. Landwehr Dutch Books with Colour Plates 105.

Born in New York to Polish Jewish refugees the renowned sculptor Sir Jacob Epstein 1880-1959 came to Europe at the age of 21 studying at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts before settling in England becoming a British subject in 1911. One of his first notable commissions came in 1908 when Robert Ross invited him to design Oscar Wilde's tomb in Père Lachaise cemetery in Paris installed in 1914. By 1929 however Epstein's reputation was well established although his work continued to court controversy as debate raged as to whether his work was too explicit with the result that public commissions were few and far between until World War II.
