Framed botanical print of butterflies – Buglossum Creticum

Very beautiful botanical engraving representing a plant with visible roots accompanied by butterflies, with great finesse in detail and execution. Titled “Buglossum Creticum bullatum, flore vario odorato”, with a double inscription in Latin and French, characteristic of old scientific plates. Mention at the bottom right “N. Robert del. Et sculp.”, indicating the designer and engraver. This is a decorative print inspired by old botanical engravings (probably a 20th-century reproduction), presented under a mount with a gilded wooden frame. Dimensions: H 57 X W 48 cm. Condition: generally good condition, paper slightly yellowed with visible marks and small stains, frame with signs of use. Shipping possible and carefully packaged.
