Seguir leyendoInsecta Lepidoptera-Heterocera Pl 027 by Frederick DuCane Godman introduces a quietly luminous page of Victorian natural history, where science and artistry meet with scholarly restraint. Dated to the period 1879–1915, this zoological plate assembles a selection of moths (the “Heterocera” of the title) arrayed across a clean white field, each rendered with measured precision for comparative study. Godman, an influential English naturalist of the 19th century, approached his subjects with the objective clarity of taxonomy, allowing pattern, proportion, and morphology to speak for themselves.
This listing offers a museum-quality fine art print of the original plate, reproduced with exceptional fidelity on your choice of acid-free archival paper or artist’s cotton canvas. Available in a range of sizes, it can be framed to order and personalized by The Unique Maps Co., including optional title captions, plate numbers, or dedication lines. Each print is color-checked to honor the subtle palette of the antique original and designed to sit beautifully in studies, libraries, and bright, contemporary spaces alike.
Godman’s career was devoted to documenting biodiversity with exacting care, and his work—especially on butterflies and moths—helped codify the language of form that still guides lepidopterists today. This plate reflects that legacy: a carefully balanced composition that privileges legibility over flourish, meant to aid accurate identification at a glance. It forms part of the broader flowering of natural history in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when illustrated publications played a central role in mapping the sheer variety of life on earth.
The subject itself is a study in difference as much as resemblance. Against the white ground, the moths’ wings display crisp geometries and repeat motifs that hint at camouflage and warning coloration: tawny bands, mossy browns, and honeyed yellows punctuated by precise orange notes. Antennae and wing margins are described with fine line work and gentle washes, emphasizing subtle textures—powdery scales, scalloped edges, and the delicate curves of fore- and hindwings. The result is both informative and serenely decorative, a page that rewards close reading and looks handsome from across the room.
Color is handled with a naturalist’s restraint. Earth tones and leaf-browns settle the eye, while orange and yellow markings lift the composition with small, clarifying sparks—just enough contrast to separate species without disturbing the plate’s calm. The overall rhythm feels ordered but never rigid, as though the specimens have paused in a moment of stillness for careful study. It’s an elegant way to bring the grace of fieldwork and the discipline of taxonomy into a domestic setting.
A thoughtful gift for entomologists, science teachers, and natural history lovers, this print also suits travelers returning from biodiverse regions and anyone drawn to the quiet beauty of Victorian illustration. For Christmas, Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, or a housewarming, it offers a timeless, intelligent accent—and with framing and personalized caption options from The Unique Maps Co., it arrives ready to display and cherish.
If you're not sure what size to order, or you're looking for a custom order of some kind – a different size, a different colour, a special frame – then please contact me. I usually respond within a few minutes.
You can see an example of my fine art personalisation service in the fifth image. Zoom in and take a look. My personalised artwork is always very well received. Take a look at more examples of personalisation.
You can also choose to age your art print to make it look older. This is popular amongst my customers who want their artwork to look like an older, antique print. You can see an example of ageing in the sixth product image, or go ahead and check out lots of examples of other aged artwork.
The model in the listing images is holding the 18x24in (45x60cm) version of this art print.
I can print and frame this beautiful piece of art at sizes up to 3 metres (10ft). If you are looking for a size or framing option that isn't available online, please get in touch.
This artwork is available as a giclée print on acid free archival matte paper, or you can buy it framed. My standard frames come in six colours (black, dark brown, dark grey, antique gold, oak and white), and custom framing is available for an additional charge. My frames are glazed with super-clear museum-grade acrylic (perspex/acrylite), which is significantly less reflective than glass, safer, and will always arrive in perfect condition.
This artwork is also available as a float framed canvas, sometimes known as a shadow gap framed canvas or canvas floater. The work is printed on artist's cotton canvas and then stretched over a handmade box frame. We then "float" the canvas inside a wooden frame, which is available in a range of colours (black, dark brown, oak, antique gold and white). This is a wonderful way to present an art print without glazing in front. See some examples of float framed canvas art and explore the differences between my different finishes.

Mi marco estándar es un marco de madera de fresno negro estilo galería. Es simple y tiene un aspecto bastante moderno. Mi marco estándar tiene alrededor de 20 mm (0.8 in) de ancho.
Utilizo acrílico super claro (perspex/acrylite) para el vidrio del marco. Es más ligero y seguro que el vidrio, y se ve mejor, ya que la reflectividad es menor.
Seis colores de marco estándar están disponibles de forma gratuita (negro, marrón oscuro, gris oscuro, roble, blanco y oro antiguo).El enmarcado y montaje/matizado personalizado está disponible si buscas algo diferente.
La mayoría de los mapas, arte e ilustraciones también están disponibles como un lienzo enmarcado. Utilizamos lienzo de algodón mate (no brillante), lo estiramos sobre un marco de madera de caja de origen sostenible, y luego 'flotamos' la pieza dentro de un marco de madera. El resultado final es bastante hermoso, y no hay cristal que se interponga.
Todos los marcos se proporcionan "listos para colgar", con una cuerda o soportes en la parte posterior. Los marcos muy grandes tendrán placas de colgar de alta resistencia y/o un listón de montaje. Si tienes alguna pregunta, por favor ponte en contacto.
Mira algunos ejemplos de mis mapas enmarcados y mapas en lienzo enmarcados.
Alternativamente, también puedo proporcionar mapas antiguos y obras de arte en lienzo, tablero de espuma, papel de algodón y otros materiales.
Si deseas enmarcar tu mapa o obra de arte tú mismo, por favor lee mi guía de tamaños primero.
