To Begin

White Frame Included

To Begin is a signed etching in colours produced by renowned contemporary artist, Damien Hirst. The print, made in 2008, shows a magnificent blue butterfly with a white pattern on its wings. The butterfly is depicted from a close-up angle, enabling the viewer to see all the details of the insect’s body. The print captures the natural beauty of the butterfly, an insect which has long interested Hirst. The butterfly is set against a black backdrop, meaning the blue and white of its wings stands out dramatically, capturing the viewer’s attention.
