Speaking of butterfly art (though not particularly folk), my husband and I found this gallery in San Juan, Puerto Rico. I attached two of my own pictures and a website link.

From Jeff Edmunds :
 
These questions passed along from an arts librarian:
 
Is anyone aware of a folk art tradition that involves the use of actual
butterfly wings in creating images?
 
Would any French Nabokovians be aware of any popular works on butterfly
hunting and collecting published in France ca. 1947-1957? I have turned up
a few titles but am curious to know if there are any "standard" works from
that period.
 
Thanks very much.
