Description

This colorful 1996 series showcases the diversity of the amphibian world, ranging from newts to exotic frogs. The designs by D. Vangelli feature great attention to the anatomical details of the animals, set against subtly sketched aquatic and terrestrial vegetation. The cool, blue-green background tones perfectly highlight the intense colors of the amphibians themselves.

Set Composition (MNH Condition):

200 Sh. So: Triturus cristatus (Great Crested Newt) among water lilies.
300 Sh. So: Salamandra, featuring its characteristic yellow-and-black warning coloration.
500 Sh. So.: Necturus maculosus (Mudpuppy) – a unique amphibian with visible external gills.
2500 Sh. So.: Atelopus zeteki (Panamanian Golden Frog) against a backdrop of leaves.

Why is this series a valuable acquisition?

Masterful Design: D. Vangelli once again proves his ability to blend realism with artistic form.
Pristine Quality: Printing at the I.P.Z.S. in Rome ensures sharp details and lasting color vibrancy.
