EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Arthropods, c. 1860" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a vibrant array of arthropods in all their glory. The German School artist beautifully captured these fascinating creatures, highlighting their intricate details and vivid colors. From left to right, we can admire the majestic Riesenkalmar (giant squid), with its long tentacles gracefully floating through the water. Next to it is the Gemeine Sepie (common cuttlefish) displaying its mesmerizing ability to change color and blend into its surroundings. The Gemeiner Seepolyp oder Krake (common octopus) stands out with its unique body shape and intelligent eyes. Moving towards the center of the composition, we encounter the delicate Papiernautilus (paper nautilus), known for creating beautiful chambers within its shell. Alongside it is Schiffsboot (flying squid), soaring through the sky with remarkable agility. The lower part of this illustration introduces us to lesser-known species such as Posthörnchen (little post horn squid) and Walfischs Lanzenförmige Cleodore (emperor nautilus). Their enchanting forms add depth and diversity to this visual exploration of nature's wonders. Published by Emil Hänselmann in his renowned work "A Naturgeschichte des Tierreichs" this image captures not only scientific accuracy but also artistic brilliance. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with wildlife throughout history.
