Monarch Butterfly

Closeup macrophotograph of a monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) from a museum collection at Fort Hays State University in western Kansas. Shows the beautiful and intricate veination patterns and spots on the wings. Beautiful animals!

As all my images, this comes in a variety of presentations: matted, gallery-wrap canvas and framed. They come in many sizes and can be custom-sized (virtual fitting) to your wall space. Contact me and I will guide you on selections!

This particular image is an 18" x 24" photograph on archival paper using pigmented inks It is mounted to 3/16" Gatorboard with a matte lamination applied to the surface that removes all light reflection and removes the need for using glass in the framing. All preparation materials are archival. The frame I use is a wood frame with a linen liner, the combination adding 2.5" in each direction. So the outside dimensions (wall space taken up) is 23" x 29". The image is signed/numbered in lower right corner from edition of 250.
