Description
Yellow moths with delicate, translucent wings cluster around sprigs of small red and white wildflowers in this natural history illustration rendered in soft watercolor and ink. The composition arranges the insects and botanicals in an organic, study-like arrangement against a cream ground, capturing the scientific precision and gentle artistry of 19th-century naturalist drawings. At home in a naturalist's study, a botanical library, or a collector's cabinet of curiosities. 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.
