About the artwork

Admire the enchanting beauty of nature with our breathtaking macro photo of a yellow city giant (Volucella zonaria), also known as the hornet hoverfly. This majestic hoverfly, captured in picturesque Belgian Limburg in Zutendaal, takes centre stage in this impressive wall decoration.

A Unique View of the City Giant

The picture shows the city giant in all its splendour, resting on a delicate white flower, surrounded by a lush dark green background. The striking yellow and black pattern of this insect catches the eye immediately, and the detailed shot captures every subtle feature of the city giant.

Highlights of the Horned Hoverfly

The city giant, belonging to the family hoverflies (Syrphidae), is a fascinating insect with impressive dimensions of up to 2.5 centimetres. Despite its imposing appearance, this hoverfly is completely harmless and cannot sting. Its striking resemblance to the hornet makes the city giant all the more intriguing, as a master of mimicry.

Safe admiration of the City Giant

Contrary to its name and appearance, the city giant poses no threat whatsoever. This hoverfly does not bite or sting, making it a safe and engaging addition to your wall decoration. The recent increase in sightings of the city giant is attributed to climate change and changes in its habitat. Our wall decoration gives you the opportunity to admire this unique phenomenon in the natural world at leisure.
