EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph, titled "Gamochonia octopi et Tintenfisch" or "Octopuses and Squid" in English, is a beautiful and intricate depiction of various cephalopod species, including the long-armed squid (Chiroteuthis veranii), umbrella squid (Histioteuthis bonnellii), and common octopus (Octopus vulgaris), among others. The illustration, created by renowned German naturalist Ernst Haeckel and expertly rendered in chromolithograph form by Adolf Glitsch in 1904, showcases the unique and captivating forms of these deep-sea dwellers. The long-armed squid, also known as the vampire squid, is characterized by its long, thin arms and webbed arms that can be used to create a false head to confuse predators. The umbrella squid, with its large, circular body and wing-like arms, is a master of camouflage, able to change color and texture to blend in with its surroundings. The common octopus, a familiar sight in many aquariums, is known for its intelligence and ability to solve complex puzzles. This artwork, taken from Haeckel's seminal work "Art Forms in Nature," or "Kunstformen der Natur," is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the cephalopods in this print are a feast for the eyes, and serve as a reminder of the wonders that lie beneath the waves. Whether appreciated for its scientific value or simply for its aesthetic appeal, this chromolithograph is a true masterpiece that continues to captivate and inspire.
