Very beautiful and particular collage realized with several real butterflies. This "Papillon Collage" represents the silhouette of an African female figure in profile carrying a basket on her head. The butterfly specimens are all different each other and lend themselves very well to a representation of this type. The wings are colorful and form a simple but very interesting and lively composition.
