Description

A delicate paper nautilus floats against a cream background, its translucent shell rendered in warm browns and soft blues with intricate cross-hatching and fine line work. Smaller anatomical studies appear in the corners, documenting details of this remarkable cephalopod in the meticulous style of 18th-century natural history illustration. At home in a naturalist's study, a library, or anywhere curiosity about the natural world is cherished. A Baltic birch top with a beveled edge and satin finish, the artwork printed across it, made to order on steel legs in black or gold. A working piece of furniture that earns its place as an independent artist's work.
