New Zealand is fortunate in having had one of the world's truly great entomologists in George Vernon Hudson who migrated with his family to New Zealand in 1881. At a very young age he began to draw and to paint the insects he saw and these meticulously executed miniature paintings enhanced all the books he published.
The prints on this page are from Hudson's New Zealand Moths and Butterflies, 1898 and from New Zealand Neuroptera, 1904.
