Vintage mounted and framed butterfly is a blast back to the early to mid 20th century when such framed butterflies were particularly popular. It's understandable in retrospect, for note the rich colors and textures of the butterfly wings and body. This butterfly is mounted along with foliage to give it added flair and realism, and it's in excellent and all original condition. This specimen is particularly fine, with iridescent green providing an incredibly and eye catching contrast with the predominant black color of this mounted butterfly. This is a Max Richter butterfly, a man known to butterfly collectors and conservationists who bred and sold butterflies in the 1960s out of E. Durham NY including many rare species. It measures approximately 9.0" x 7.0" and has the original label on the back from the Max Richter Butterly Farm in East Durham, NY up in the Catskill Mountains. The specimen is noted as is the country of origin (Malaysia). Cross listed on Art 1. /55
