Free Butterfly Ephemera

{Coming SOON: New Upgraded Versions!}The beauty of a butterfly captures attention on a cold wintry day.  Maybe it's the longing for spring air and green things growing, or maybe the colors and brightness make us dream of wide open spaces. These images come to us out of the 1901 reprint of W.J. Holland's "The Butterfly Book," a masterful volume full of sage advice on the study of butterflies of North America. There are many other lovely images like this one in our current collection, but we hope to keep updating our files over time.
Included with the usual imagery, we've added an enhanced version of one of our favorites from this page. We hope you'll find lots of uses for these images.
Happy Creativity!
