Is anybody familiar with an art technique that incorporated actual
butterfly wings into a painting or decorative art object?  According to
my patron it was popular during the Victorian era and he wanted to know
if the technique had a name and if any information could be found on the
topic.  I have not been able to find anything on the subject.   Any
suggestions would be welcome.
