Antique 1843 Henry Noel Humphreys Hand-Colored Lithograph Print, Plate 32

This antique natural history print is an original 1843 hand-colored lithograph by renowned Victorian illustrator Henry Noel Humphreys. Extracted from the highly collectible volume British Moths and their Transformations, this architectural print illustrates British moth species and their caterpillar phases integrated into detailed botanical studies.

Printed via traditional stone lithography on heavy mid-19th-century woven rag paper, the engraving features fine, historical hand-applied watercolor washes that highlight individual wing patterns. The print exhibits natural, uniform age-toning across the sheet face. It is professionally housed in a custom cream archival mat and is framed securely under protective glass within an elegant, gilded metallic gold-leaf gallery frame.
