Butterfly Mushroom Flower Watercolor Painting Tea Towel
Hoefnagel's Mediaeval illumination of a manuscript - a butterfly, mushroom, and flower watercolor sketch
Our butterfly image is based on a butterfly illustration from the mediaeval manuscript, "Mira calligraphiae monumenta" or "Model book of Calligraphy", this vintage butterfly and mushroom image shows a beautifully drawn butterfly, with its wings closed, sitting on top of an open red flower. Underneath of both sits an upside-down mushroom. All beautifully rendered in pen and ink and watercolor. The beautiful butterfly and mushroom illustration was created by mediaeval nature illustrator Joris Hoefnagel (Flemish and Hungarian, Austria) in the late 1500s.
Hoefnagel's illuminations showing botanicals and insects were what Hoefnagel was known for painting. He rendered his botanicals and insects with precision, unlike other nature artists of his day. Our butterfly and mushroom illustration looks great on our gifts. The butterfly and mushroom are wonderful gifts for someone who loves beautiful vintage images and antique art.

I was delighted with the beautiful tea towels, the design looked really lovely. I adore garden ponds and these towels and other products I ordered with the same design will bring me so much pleasure. My garden is too small for a real pond. If you love ponds and wildlife this design is for you!

They absorb so well and wash up really nicely not losing their colour at all. They are expensive but in my opinion they are well worth the money. Yes they turned out perfectly to match my new kitchen
