Maria Sibylla Merian and her daughter Dorothea Graff were pioneering painters and printmakers famous for their scientific illustrations. In 1699 they travelled to Surinam in South America where they made extensive notes and sketches, and collected dried plants and animals preserved in alcohol. They returned to Amsterdam in 1701, and in 1705 Merian published her work on Surinamese insects, which included this watercolour painting. It was the first scientific work published about Surinam and its wildlife.
You can see the work of both Merian and Graff in our free display about the collections of the British Museum’s founder Hans Sloane in Room 90a – link in bio.
