EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of coral polyps, captured in a colored engraving by an anonymous German artist from the 19th century. The private collection that houses this artwork has preserved a piece of natural history, allowing us to marvel at these delicate creatures. The image depicts various types of coral polyps, each with its own unique shape and coloration. From the net-like structure of one polyp to the swirling pattern of another, we are reminded of the diversity found within our oceans. The regal King Coral stands out among them all, commanding attention with its majestic presence. Published in Friedrich Justin Bertuch's "Picture Book for Children" between 1790 and 1830, this print serves as both an educational tool and a work of art. It introduces young minds to different species such as Melitaea textiformis, Mopsea verticillata, Isis Hippuris, and Isis gracilis - names that may spark curiosity about marine life. Thanks to ePurix Verlag Volker Christen and Bridgeman Images' efforts in preserving historical prints like this one, we can appreciate nature's wonders through artistry. As we gaze upon this enchanting engraving today, it reminds us not only of the importance of conservation but also how timeless beauty can be found even in scientific illustrations.
