Description

“A fashionable herbarium centered around the japanese fashion know as Lolita. Gothic garb, gothic novel, a branch of lunaria, this piece is unmistakenly placed under the patronage of the Moon.”

Print of “Herbier Lunaire” (“Moon Herbarium”), a watercolour illustration by messalyn painted in 2015. Important note : this is a reproduction print, not the original!

The illustration is reproduced on a 30 x 40 cm paper (12 × 16 inches), at the same scale than the original (the demarcation is visible, due to the original paper not being a true white). It features wide margins to allow for the artist signature and numerotation and give you the most options for the framing process. You could even ditch the usual framing mat as these margins are quite efficient. The paper — Rives Sensation Tradition Matt natural white in 270g — has a little texture to it, it was chosen for its likeness with creation papers used for painting, as some of my prints are actually made to be painted over.
