Rue de Bac Large Butterflies (1200-0897)
by Currey
The Rue de Bac Large Butterflies are lovely encased specimens made of blue paper with black accents displayed within a clear glass dome. Sitting atop a wood base in a black finish, the bright sculptural object stands 16.5” tall. Named for the Parisian street on which a famous French taxidermy is located, the artful butterflies that flutter in this sculpture would feel right at home in a cabinet of curiosities that holds some remarkable wonders of nature.
