EDITORS COMMENTS

The image is a handcoloured copperplate engraving created by Edward Donovan for his renowned work, "Natural History of British Fishes" published between 1802 and 1808. The intricate details captured in this illustration highlight the beauty and uniqueness of this marine creature. With its large round body and distinct fin-like structure, the Ocean Sunfish stands out among other fish species. Its vulnerability adds to its allure, reminding us of our responsibility to protect and preserve these magnificent creatures. Edward Donovan's artistic talent shines through in this piece, bringing life to each stroke on the copperplate. His dedication to capturing nature's wonders is evident in every line and shade meticulously engraved onto paper.
