Description
The Vulcan is magnificently represented on this 180 millime stamp, placed on a rose. This butterfly is famous for its striking chromatic contrast: deep black wings crossed by orange-red bands and punctuated with white spots. Very common in gardens and orchards in northern Tunisia, it particularly appreciates the nectar of flowers and the juice of fallen fruits. Its imagery evokes the strength and elegance of wild nature close to homes.
