Specimens of real butterflies, artfully displayed on a fabric backing, in stained oak frames. The frames were originally drawers of a collectors cabinet, but have been converted to be hung on the wall with the addition of a protective layer of plexiglass. Within two of the frames, 25 to 32 butterflies are set in a symmetrical pattern radiating from the center. The other two are more pictorial arrangements, with about 15 butterflies collaged with dried plants, as if they were fluttering through a natural setting.
