About the Artist

William Forsell Kirby, born in 1844 in Leicester, was a Victorian entomologist known for his transformative work on Lepidoptera. His book, "A Hand-book to the Order Lepidoptera," was more than a catalog—it vividly captured the beauty of butterflies and moths with precision. Kirby combined artistic skill with scientific expertise, making his work beloved among naturalists. Kirby also contributed to Orthoptera studies with his "Synonymic Catalogue of Orthoptera," detailing grasshoppers and crickets. His illustrations brought insects to life, showcasing his artistic passion. Kirby's exploration of evolution and natural theology made his contributions uniquely insightful, inspiring future generations of entomologists.
