The Museum Wiesbaden exhibits until 9 July caterpillar dioramas, based on Merian’s research and art works. Nine glass domes enclose the life-cycles of European lepidopterans, as studied by Merian in her famous Raupenbuch (Caterpillar book) and the Studienbuch (study book). The museum holds in its collection some of the original insect preparations from the original collection of Merian. More information can be found
