Description
A dense catalog of reptiles and amphibians fills this hand-colored engraving, arranged in three horizontal registers from snakes and lizards at top to crocodilians in the middle and turtles below. Ochre, sage green, and cream tones dominate the naturalistic palette, rendered with fine cross-hatching and delicate linework characteristic of 19th-century scientific illustration. Printed to order on a soft, absorbent mat with a no-slip backing, ready underfoot the moment you step out. The kind of art you don't expect on a bathroom floor.
