Spider, Love-in-a-Mist, Potter Wasp, Red Currant, c.1562, Watercolors, gold, silver paint, and ink

In this quirky illumination, equilibrium was created by Joris Hoefnagel. Creating a quality replica from careful observation of nature, Joris was able to have you see the wasp with the intricately patterned wings and can tell the body is glossy and delicate on the feathery legs that look so lifelike. Hoefnagel imbued the spider on the left with life and movement as it seeks out its prey.
