Amazing! - Flies and moths, on my And artsy beetles galore Bugs are very cool I have this thing about bugs. With a few notable exceptions, I love them. I've always known they were super-cool looking, but this is the first book that I think captures that. Or it is the book that captures that best. The photos here are stunning. This is a must-have for any sophisticated bug lover. Not sure how big that market is ... ha ha Review: Book is great; desertcart packaging is lousy - Love the photography, but desertcart just doesn’t do a good job shipping books. This was to be a gift and the cover had a rip, so I did an exchange. The exchanged version was better, but the corners were pushed in. All due to rotten packaging. I Hope desertcart improves this. Don’t buy new books from desertcart unless you don’t care that they’ll likely get to you looking like used-very good condition books. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #128,809 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #58 in Entomology (Books) #84 in Biology of Insects & Spiders #100 in Plant & Animal Photography | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (440) | | Dimensions | 12.52 x 10.12 x 0.79 inches | | ISBN-10 | 1419726951 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1419726958 | | Item Weight | 2.85 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 144 pages | | Publication date | October 10, 2017 | | Publisher | Abrams Books | ## Images ![Microsculpture: Extreme macro portraits revealing insects as alien, sculptural works of natural art. - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71bieY6rl0L.jpg) ![Microsculpture: Extreme macro portraits revealing insects as alien, sculptural works of natural art. - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51FRvQtdSBL.jpg) ![Microsculpture: Extreme macro portraits revealing insects as alien, sculptural works of natural art. - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51h1BJ2t7nL.jpg) ![Microsculpture: Extreme macro portraits revealing insects as alien, sculptural works of natural art. - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61YoXO-gMWL.jpg) ![Microsculpture: Extreme macro portraits revealing insects as alien, sculptural works of natural art. - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51UjUALRzBL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Insects as art. Amazing! *by K***I on January 15, 2018* Flies and moths, on my And artsy beetles galore Bugs are very cool I have this thing about bugs. With a few notable exceptions, I love them.

This was to be a gift and the cover had a rip, so I did an exchange. The exchanged version was better, but the corners were pushed in. All due to rotten packaging. I Hope Amazon improves this.

As he describes it, the boy came in from the back yard with an insect, and father and son took a look at it under a home microscope. But the mania did not stop there and eventually this artist began taking numerous "tiled" photos of each insect, compiling the segments into gorgeous (large format) prints. They are stunningly beautiful, and I'm so glad to have this book in my art library. (PS: I ordered two of these books, since I knew I wanted to give one to a fellow artist as a gift. The two books without ANY packing materials, bubble wrap, shrink-wrap, or any protection were thrown into a too-large Amazon box, with one strip of their packaging tape. Done! By pure luck these books arrived in OK shape -- but the shipment showed a carelessness that was very disappointing. I so value the books in my library -- I wish the people packing the books at Amazon had the same feeling.) ## Frequently Bought Together - Microsculpture: Portraits of Insects - The Hidden Beauty of Seeds & Fruits: The Botanical Photography of Levon Biss - Animal Architecture: Photographs of Natural Habitats --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/49826089-microsculpture-extreme-macro-portraits-revealing-insects-as-alien-sculptural-works](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/49826089-microsculpture-extreme-macro-portraits-revealing-insects-as-alien-sculptural-works) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
