Behold the iconic Papilio machaon, or the Old World swallowtail butterfly that defines its entire genus. This magnificent specimen represents one of nature's most recognizable beauties, gracing the Palearctic region & North America with its distinctive wing patterns and graceful flight. What makes this display truly exceptional is its stunning backdrop: a breathtaking photograph captured by Beth Watson at Savannah's historic Bonaventure Cemetery, adding layers of artistry and local significance to your piece. Meticulously preserved and mounted in a 5"x5" frame, this combination of natural wonder and photographic excellence creates an heirloom-quality display. Perfect for butterfly enthusiasts, collectors, and anyone seeking to bring timeless elegance and natural history into their space.
