Description from the seller

Papilio ulysses — the Ulysses of the South Seas

One of the most dazzling butterflies of Oceania, presented in all its splendor. Papilio ulysses, native to the tropical forests of Australia and Papua New Guinea, is recognizable by its large wings of electric blue of rare intensity—a structural color that only nature knows how to produce.

Mounted against a black background in a 23x23x5 cm shadow box, the contrast exalts every nuance of its wings and gives it a luminous, almost unreal presence. An UV-protective acrylic pane ensures the long-term preservation of the specimen, with a carefully crafted professional finish.

Each specimen is unique — slight variations in size or patterns make each frame a singular piece, like no other.
