Denton, available as a 24" × 36" unframed fine art giclée print.

Classic entomological illustration of the Monarch Butterfly (Danais archippus), reproduced from Moths and Butterflies of the United States by Sherman F. Denton (1856–1937). Denton was renowned for his meticulous documentation of North American butterflies and moths, presenting both upper- and underside views with scientific clarity and visual balance.

This composition displays the Monarch butterfly’s distinctive orange-and-black patterning in a symmetrical, plate-style layout typical of early 20th-century natural history publications. The clear labeling and restrained background emphasize accuracy while giving the work a timeless, decorative appeal.

Originally executed as a hand-colored natural history illustration.

This print has been digitally enhanced from our own publication of Denton’s work, carefully refined to improve clarity and tonal balance while preserving the character of the original plate. Subtle texture, light marks, or variations from the historical source may remain and are considered part of the artwork’s authentic character.

Printed using archival pigment inks on museum-quality matte fine art paper for long-term color stability and reduced glare.
Unframed.
