Background:
These unique prints are from the first edition of the work by W. F. Kirby, assistant in
the Zoological Department of the British Museum. Each print shows a grouping of
butterflies or moths around a bouquet of flowers or flowering plants. This work was
from Cassell's, the respected British publisher of natural history books. As Kirby
states in the Preface "The present work is designed to provide entomologists and
tourists with a comprehensive illustrated guide to the study of European Macro-Lepidoptera."
