Framed Natural History Illustration of a Toucan and Butterfly

This item is a professionally framed natural history illustration featuring a Toucan (Aracari) perched on a botanical branch with a swallowtail-style butterfly hovering above. The print is presented in a sophisticated multi-layered mounting, including a deep green primary mat, a decorative marbled or patterned inner border, and a thin red reveal. The artwork is housed within a substantial gold-toned wooden frame featuring ornate beaded and gadrooned detailing along the inner and outer edges. The central illustration appears to be a high-quality lithograph or engraving reproduction, characterized by vibrant pigments—deep blacks in the bird's feathers, warm yellows and reds on its breast, and muted greens in the foliage. Script calligraphy is visible at the bottom of the internal print window, likely identifying the species in Latin or French. The overall presentation suggests a late 20th-century decorative piece styled after 18th or 19th-century scientific plates, such as those by John Gould or Francois Levaillant. The condition appears excellent with no visible foxing, fading, or moisture damage to the paper. The frame shows minor surface dust but no significant chipping to the gilt finish, indicating well-maintained decorative art. A small pink circular 'Lot' sticker is present on the glass in the upper right corner.
