We are proud to showcase the skill of two incredibly talented women, Harriet & Helena Scott a.k.a. the "Scott Sisters".
The design for this shirt was originally drawn byHarriet & Helena from 1846 to 1851. Their work was not printed until 1864, when it was published as "Australian Lepidoptera and their Transformations". Only 500 copies were printed at the time and each one was hand coloured.
The fabric is a soft, durable and breathable cotton made by Gildan. The sort of cotton that feels good on the skin.
Direct-to-garment printing allows us to achieve the resolution required to do these illustrations justice. They are more susceptible to heat and we advise that you avoid washing at high temperatures to maintain the integrity of the image.
We recently changed supplier to adopt a higher resolution printing technology. The new shirts are "larger" cuts than the first series (designs by James Sowerby). Please see the different size charts below for reference:
