A Rothschild's Birdwin in a handmade wooden baroque style frame. The specimens are mounted on high quality acid free black conservation board with a black mount and striking white edge, all rounded off with baroque style corner protectors.

This species was first recognised by entomologist Charles Edgar Pratt and described by George Kenrick in 1911. It was named in honour of Lord Walter Rothschild who financed most of the expeditions of the naturalist Antwerp Edgar Pratt (1850-1924) and his two sons, Carl Brenders Pratt and Felix Biet Pratt, to British New Guinea from 1902-1903 and to the Arfak Mountains of Dutch New Guinea from 1909-1910.

Its wingspan reaches 13 cm.
