"The Butterfly and the Pond" is a 1868 etching by French artist Rodolphe Bresdin, now housed at The Art Institute of Chicago. The print depicts a mountainous landscape with a village nestled in the foothills. A large butterfly, with eyes on its wings, hovers above the scene. The intricate details of the landscape and the butterfly's enigmatic presence contribute to the artwork's unique and captivating aesthetic. Bresdin was known for his detailed and often fantastical etchings.
