A small fly is trapped in this large spider’s web. This vintage black and white spider image of a spider and its web would make a great illustration of being trapped, a spider for Halloween or for any project needing a spider web.
The History of Insects was published in 1813 without identifying an illustrator. Which is truly a shame because the work is full of wonderful insect drawings like this one.
This image is copyright free and in the public domain anywhere that extends copyrights 70 years after death or at least 120 years after publication when the original illustrator is unknown.
