Four serpents in varying patterns and colors wind through cream parchment, flanked by delicate green botanical sprigs that frame the composition with naturalistic precision. The snakes range from rust-red to deep blue, rendered in the careful hand-colored style of 18th-century natural history illustration, each species distinct in marking and posture. At home in a naturalist's study or a gallery celebrating scientific illustration and natural wonder. Printed to order directly onto lightweight aluminum with a high-gloss finish that makes color and detail pop and resists fading over time. A wood backing floats it about three-quarters of an inch off the wall and holds the wire or sawtooth hanger. Available from mini to large, it is original art with a modern, durable edge, not a quick print off a shelf.
