L'Admiral was a gifted amateur entomologist, he was fascinated by insects from the age of ten. He studied the life cycle and metamorphosis of a number of species of butterflies, moths and other insects. And he himself made sketches and engravings showing the life cycles of insects, from egg to caterpillar, from pupa to adult, as well as their host plants. Through his work, L'Admiral was increasing the body of scientific work of the time, begun by pioneers in entomology such as Maria Sibylla Merian. In all, L'Admiral illustrated seventy metamorphoses on thirty-three engraved plates.
