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. At home in a study, naturalist's office, or collector's curiosity cabinet. Made to order as peel-and-stick panels with a matte finish, it goes up without paste and comes back off clean when you're ready for a change. Original artwork that repeats seamlessly to turn a whole wall, or just a nook, into something that's yours.
