This detailed watercolor study of a caterpillar by Herman Henstenburgh is a fine example of 18th-century naturalism. The artist captures the intricate details of the insect's body, its segmented form, and the delicate hairs that cover its back. The work showcases Henstenburgh’s skill in representing nature with precise detail and a sense of realism. Its simple composition, set against a plain background, highlights the subject’s beauty and complexity. The artwork is currently housed in the Städel Museum.
