New Art :: Lord Bodner's Octopus Study

I have been lusting after this print for a loooong time, and was shocked  thrilled when my husband surprised me with it as part of my 'push present.' 

the image that began my love affair...via 

The original is a copperplate engraving by Lord Bodner and was published in 1826 in London for a series of deep sea creatures. The print is available through Natural Curiosities

We just got the print back from the framing shop, and I can't wait to hang it up! 


Happy Monday! xo

  3. Glad to have discovered your triptych, saw it hanging as well. Looks stunning. Pinned it. You might get a kick out of the knock off I posted on my blog too here.
