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. Printed on smooth white card stock and made to order, artwork on the front, blank inside, envelopes included in every set. A handwritten note that arrives as an independent artist's work.
