From a 1782 edition of Dru Drury's Illustrations of Natural History, this antique hand painted watercolor copper engraving of exotic moths is ready to be framed and hung on a wall as art decor.
The antique entomology art print is in a hand-decorated cream-color matting and has its original identification label on the back from Gladstone & Elwyn-Jones. The antique print was in the collection of naturalist Edward Greaves who made a notation on the sheet in pencil identifying the illustrated moth species.
In my collection since the early 1990s, the print is still sealed in its archival wrapper.
Approximate Measurements including the matting:
15" x 13"
