The tiny mint moth, Pyraustra aurata, measures only 14mm to 18mm & is described as a common moth because they are quite widespread & large in number. I can’t see this beautiful moth as common, in fact I think its super special. This tiny moth is often hidden by leaves but can be spotted on warm sunny days as it is a day flying moth. In reality it’s a gorgeous deep purple shade with gold highlights.
Printed in a choice of Phthalo Green or Black both printed onto the lovely handmade Lokta paper.
The Print comes complete with ivory mount & backing board inside a biodegradable cello bag.
Approximate measurements: Exterior of mount 30.5cm x 25.5cm with an internal aperture size of approximately 22cm x 17cm
