What you’ll see
Seven butterflies arranged in a clean specimen plate style, some shown with both dorsal and ventral surfaces: the Peacock’s dramatic eyes, the Camberwell Beauty’s pale margins, the regal Purple Emperor, the chequered Glanville Fritillary, camouflage Grayling, metallic Green Hairstreak, and the luminous Silver-studded Blue. Up close: crisp line and fine stipple. From a step back: harmonious rhythm and colour.
