$170.00

Description

Worked as a companion piece to Campanula and Butterflies in issue #123 of Inspirations, The Moth is based on a second image by the renowned entomologist and artist, Maria Sibylla Merian.

Capturing the life-cycle of the moth from caterpillar to pupa and adult, the embroidery is worked with stranded cotton, silk ribbon and beads over a print on linen of the original artwork.

The large leaves and moth are worked as detached elements, adding dimension to this gentle scene.
