EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate stipple engraving, published in Antoine Laurent de Jussieu's Dizionario delle Scienze Naturali or Dictionary of Natural Science in Florence, Italy, in 1837, showcases two fascinating deep-sea fish species: the Bluespotted Cornetfish (Fistularia tabacaria, 1) and the Chinese Trumpetfish (Aulostomus chinensis, 2). The illustration was drawn by Jean Gabriel Pretre and directed by Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin, one of the greatest French botanical illustrators of the 19th century. The Bluespotted Cornetfish, also known as the European Seahorse or Seaheath, is characterized by its long, tubular snout and distinctive blue spots. This elusive fish is a master of disguise, using its ability to change color and shape to blend in with its surroundings. The Bluespotted Cornetfish is found in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans and is an important food source for many coastal communities. The Chinese Trumpetfish, also known as the Chinese Trumpet or Frankenia Trumpetfish, is a slender, elongated fish with a distinctive trumpet-shaped snout. This fish is native to the western Pacific Ocean and is a popular target for deep-sea anglers. The Chinese Trumpetfish is known for its ability to inflate its snout to create a loud trumpet-like sound, which is used to lure prey. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of this engraving are a testament to the skill and artistry of the illustrators and engravers of the time. The Dizionario delle Scienze Naturali was a groundbreaking work that aimed to document and classify the natural world, and this illustration is a beautiful example of the scientific curiosity and artistic talent that drove the scientific discoveries of the 19th century.
