EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the Dragonnet lyre and lancon equille, featuring the Common dragonet (Callionymus lyra) and lesser sand eel or sand lance (Ammodytes tobianus). Created by Sydenham Edwards for John Mason Goods Pantologia, a New Encyclopedia in 1813, this print is a testament to the intricate artistry of natural history illustrations during that era. The image beautifully captures the vibrant colors and delicate details of these marine creatures. The Common dragonet with its striking patterns and elongated fins stands out against the backdrop of sandy ocean floor. Its graceful form is complemented by the presence of lesser sand eels swimming nearby, their slender bodies perfectly adapted for life in sandy environments. This engraving offers us a glimpse into the world of ichthyology, showcasing two fascinating species found off the coast of Great Britain. It serves as a reminder of how early scientists sought to document and understand various forms of life through detailed illustrations. With its meticulous craftsmanship and scientific accuracy, this artwork exemplifies both artistic beauty and scientific inquiry. It transports us back to an era when naturalists dedicated themselves to studying nature's wonders while also appreciating their aesthetic appeal. As we admire this enchanting print from Fine Art Finder, let it inspire us to appreciate not only the diversity but also the interconnectedness between different species in our natural world.
