10”x8”Copperplate engraving w/ watercolors by renowned entomologist, Moses Harris. “Comma Butterfly, Six Spotted Burnet Moth, White Plumed Moth”; a rare 1st edition piece from “The Aurelian: or Natural History of English Insects; Namely Moths & Butterflies”, 1st published in 1766. Shows the detailed images of the lifecycles of the before mentioned insects. The engraving plate impression is around the image. Cardboard backing was held on by nails. Had to remove to investigate. Tape has stained the paper, but is hidden by the hand painted green floral border. Border is on inside of the glass & is crumbling some which (to me) adds to the charm of the piece & could possibly be restored. Approx 20.75”x18” tri-colored solid wood frame is in perfect condition. Don’t want the frame? Let me know, I can change shipping rate
