Poster about squid and common octopus, based on an old engraving

Poster of the squid and the common octopus, after an 1849 engraving from Charles Dessalines D'Orbigny's Universal Dictionary of Natural History. Dimensions: 21 X 29 cm. Frame not included. High-quality, thick paper, 250 g. Shipped securely in a rigid package. This poster exquisitely illustrates two fascinating cephalopods: the squid (Histioteleuthis bonelliana) and the common octopus (Octopus vulgaris). Their slender tentacles, detailed suckers, and graceful forms, typical of 19th-century natural history illustrations, are clearly visible. The brown and orange hues lend a warm touch to this marine composition, ideal for a decor inspired by the sea and cabinets of curiosities. Perfect in a nautical-style interior, on a biologist's desk, alongside marine objects such as an antique compass, a seashell, coral, or a brass lamp.
