Keller was employed at the Museum f r Naturkunde Museum of Natural History in Berlin , Germany from 1930 until his death in 1955, and his sculptures can still be found there. He worked with papier m ch and several other materials such as celluloid and galalith to create models of insects including a Pulex irritans flea 1930, 100 1 scale , a housefly 1932, 50 1 scale , a mosquito in flight 1937, 60 1 scale , a Colorado potato beetle 1940, 50 1 scale , and a ball bearer leafhopper Bocydium globulare , 1953, 180 1 scale , among others. The housefly, typical of the painstaking attention to detail shown in Keller s sculptures, includes 2,653 bristles. Each model took about a year to complete.
