Title
Studies of a grasshopper, cricket and frogs
Description
"Grasshoppers, crickets and locusts abound in Japan, as well as the allied insect the Mantis, all of which are frequently depicted by Japanese Artists with that minuteness and attention to individual character, which always mark their rendering of the small forms of animal life. The life-sized specimens here represented are remarkable instances of accurate drawing...
On the same Plate are studies of the Tree Frog in various attitudes, slight in execution but admirable in drawing, and attention to distinctive character..."
