Papillon in Paris




As I usually gravitate to nature and all things animal, butterfly specimens beautifully mounted and  framed, were in abundance at the Paris flea and antique markets.  This white beauty was at least 6 inches across.

did you just look... or did you buy? I've always loved the mounted specimens but never buy. something about dead bugs on the wall... but the butterflies really ARE beautiful!

I did not buy but wonder why I didn't. I think I had already spent my limit and wanted other things more.
