EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning coloured engraving captures the beauty of seabass-like fish in intricate detail. The print, created by the German School in the 19th century, is now part of a private collection. It was featured in "A Bilderbuch fAor KinderA" (Picture Book for Children) published between 1790 and 1830 by Friedrich Justin Bertuch. The engraving showcases various species of these magnificent fish. Among them are the Holocentrus with its spear-shaped gill spine, the four-banded Pelates, the striped Beryx, and the Japanese Seegoldfisch. Each fish is depicted with remarkable accuracy and vibrant colors. The composition also highlights other marine creatures such as red squirrelfish, swallowtail fish, four-lined terapon, and Japanese soldierfish. This portrayal offers a glimpse into an underwater world teeming with diverse wildlife. Captured through meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail, this engraving exemplifies both artistic skill and scientific observation. Its historical significance lies not only in its depiction of marine life but also in its association with Friedrich Justin Bertuch's influential work on children's picture books. Now preserved by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen, this print serves as a reminder of nature's wonders that have fascinated humans throughout history. Whether admired for their aesthetic appeal or studied for their biological characteristics, these beautiful seabass-like fish continue to captivate viewers even centuries after they were first immortalized on paper.
