Death's Head Hawkmoth Gothic Framed Specimen
Acherontia atropos. Named after the Greek goddess who cut the thread of life. If a moth is going to be on your wall, it should probably have credentials like that.
The Death's Head Hawkmoth has been unnerving people for a very long time. It turns up in Silence of the Lambs. It drove 18th century Europeans to genuine superstitious panic. It squeaks when disturbed. The skull-like marking on its thorax is not a metaphor, or rather, it is, but it's also just biology being dramatic entirely on its own. This is one of the largest and most visually striking hawkmoths on the planet, ranging from 85 to 125mm, found across tropical Africa and into Europe, and in a gothic framed specimen format it becomes exactly the kind of wall piece that makes your space feel like a cabinet of curiosities rather than a rental property. Supplied by Bugs & Bits, who know their way around entomological art.
