Butterfly mounted foamex print - lightweight, contemporary and available up to 30in x 20in.
With its bold pattern and natural setting, zebra longwing butterfly creates a striking focal point suited to nature-led interiors. Ideal for living rooms, studies, or feature spaces, it pairs well with neutral tones and greenery, adding both contrast and visual interest.
The zebra longwing butterfly (Heliconius charithonia) is a well-known tropical species, easily identified by its long wings and bold striped pattern. Found in warm climates across the Americas, it is adapted to feeding on both nectar and pollen, which provides additional nutrients and contributes to its extended lifespan. Its striking markings act as a warning to predators, indicating that it is unpalatable.
Resting on a leaf with its wings partially open, the butterfly reveals more of its elongated shape and patterned surfaces. The alternating dark and pale stripes create strong visual contrast, while the surrounding foliage is softly blurred. The composition captures both detail and structure, with the leaf providing a natural base for the subject.
Enjoy a premium photographic print with three paper options, each designed to suit different lighting conditions and artistic preferences:
Each print is mounted onto black, 3mm Foamex - an ultra-durable, moisture-resistant PVC substrate that remains lightweight yet rigid. Perfect for displaying on an easel or mounting with the included Velcro strips, without the need for framing.
Supplied without a border unless otherwise specified.
Optional lamination is available in satin or gloss to match your selected paper, providing extra protection against moisture and handling. However, lamination is not recommended for Fine Art Matt paper, as it will obscure its authentic texture.

I'm absolutely made up with the print I received from Real World Art. I went for the Koi Carp image - It's very evocative and they've totally captured the serenity you feel watching Koi. You can almost hear the babbling water! What's more, it's a top quality print, pin-sharp and looks great framed up. Couldn't recommend them any higher.. lovely to deal with.. thank you.
Thrilled to bits with the picture , better than expected
Brilliant experience and service, we have the Highland Cow framed print, my other half being a lover of cattle and cows and it looks incredible on our picture wall! Thanks Again!!
Loved this image of our wedding day and was appropriate for our anniversary too...
Today I had the pleasure of picking up a framed and mounted print of 'Dandelion Clock' its absolutely stunning. The clarity is just crazy!! Now to decide where to put it!! Really beautiful work.
Brilliant customer service from the start with an easy website to navigate. Unfortunately when my order arrived the print was damaged, contacted Carol who sent another out for me straight away and kept me updated along the way. Absolutely fantastic service. Thank you.
