silkworm, silk, mulberry, and silk industry

The image is separated into three sections each highlighting a different stage in the silkworm's life cycle. The top of the page showcases four hoops of silk cocoons. The middle section depicts four adult moths. A single moth placed on a sieve-like surface laying eggs dominates the last section of the bottom of the page. The eggs seem to be collecting under the structure.

In the book, the image can be located between pages 82-83. It is marked as fol.82 and fig. 4.

The image was not part of the in person exhibit.
