Picture of naturalised butterflies taken at Deyrolle shop in Paris. Located rue du Bac since 1888, the shop attracts amateurs and collectioneurs, who come to discover naturalised animals, collections of insects, butterflies, entomological material, minerals and fossils, a well as the famous old and republished plates.
