Antique Steel Engraving ~ Selection of Butterflies

We are constantly searching for vintage prints and engravings to complement your tropical interiors. We found this series of original antique hand coloured steel engravings from a small antiques vendor in England.

This one is a selection of Peacock, Camberwell Beauty, Purple Emperor, Glanville Fritillary and Grayling Butterflies dated from the year 1852. It's been framed in a gold coloured wooden frame here in Singapore. The light blue coloured mount emphasises the subtle colours of the butterflies. 

It would look great as a single little picture over a side table or in a group on a gallery wall. There might be slight irregularities on the engravings, which are normal and reflect the age of the picture.
