At the heart of this composition reigns the legendary \u003cem\u003eMorpho menelaus\u003c\/em\u003e — the Blue Morpho, whose brilliant iridescent wings have made it the most iconic butterfly in the world.

The same plate graces both front and back covers on a rich blue background, a custom intervention by LeBonJournal that amplifies the jewel-like quality of each specimen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFront \u0026amp;
