Eupatorus Gracilicornis Rhino Beetle Framed Specimen

Five horns. F-I-V-E. The Eupatorus Gracilicornis didn't come to negotiate.

Known in entomology circles as the Five-horned Rhinoceros Beetle, Graci is one of the more dramatic inhabitants of Southeast Asian forests, and dramatically is exactly how it should be displayed. This is a real specimen, ethically sourced and professionally mounted, the kind of thing that belongs in a Victorian curiosity cabinet or on the wall of someone whose horror and macabre sensibilities extend beyond the screen. The dark aesthetic has always had a relationship with the beautiful strangeness of the natural world, and this beetle, armoured and ancient-looking, sits firmly in that tradition. Wall art for people who find flowers boring.

Framed specimen, ready to hang. Sourced and sold by ALT CVLT. Dimensions vary by individual frame, check listing for specifics. Australian small business.
