Crotalus morulus by René Villanueva Maldonado.
Biological illustration is the use of technical illustration to visually communicate the structure and specific details of biological subjects of study. This can be used to demonstrate anatomy, explain biological functions or interactions, direct surgical procedures, distinguish species, and other applications. This traditional style often depicts prey species, variation with the species or even a group of related species. Rene's focus primarily is that of Mexican herpetofauna.
These stunning pieces come in a wide variety of designs but be quick as we have VERY limited numbers of these unique works.
Crotalus morulus measures 30 x 40cms and will be sent out in a mailing tube.
