This reproduction displays a naturalist plate of five butterflies with brightly colored wings in yellow, red, blue, and green. Taken from the 1903 work Chō senshu, this illustration stands out against a uniform beige background, highlighting the diversity of the wing patterns of the represented specimens.

An emblematic artist, Kamisaka Sekka applies here the principles of the Rimpa movement to the representation of the living world. The composition favors purified forms and frank color contrasts, illustrating the encyclopedic and decorative intention of the Meiji era through rigorous technical execution.

This print is aimed at collectors of botanical and animal illustrations. It can be observed for the precision of its drawing or integrated into a sober interior decoration, bringing historical iconographic value related to the Japanese editorial heritage.
