That SQL statement provided should work just fine without any escape
sequences (at least as far as MySQL is concerned). The semicolons (;)
should be treated as part of a literal string, and therefore, inserted
into the image_data table.
Perhaps you're running this script from some utility or some program that
isn't properly handling the script.
I just ran the following using the urSQL Utility (which uses MyODBC) and
it worked fine:
drop table if exists image_data;
create table image_data(title varchar(64));
insert into image_data (title)
values ("“Blue Clearwing” (Dulcedo polita)");
select * from image_data;
Try running the script directly in MySQL.
