EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning illustration of the "Two-winged Flyingfish" by the German School in the 19th century. This exquisite lithograph, part of a private collection, is a true gem from the past. Originally published in 1864 as part of Leopold Joseph Fitzinger's "Bilder-Atlas zur wissenschaftlich-populären Naturgeschichte der Fische in ihren sämtlichen Hauptformen" this artwork beautifully captures the essence of these unique creatures. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring life to this underwater scene. The image features two-winged flyingfish, also known as Exocoetus volitans, gracefully soaring above the water's surface. Alongside them is another fascinating species called Silurus glanis or commonly known as Wels catfish. These illustrations not only showcase their physical attributes but also highlight their natural habitats. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, this print transports us back to an era when scientific exploration and nature documentation were at their peak. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with wildlife and our continuous quest for knowledge about different species that inhabit our planet. Bridgeman Images has once again curated an exceptional piece from its Fine Art Finder collection, allowing us to appreciate both artistry and biology through this remarkable depiction of aquatic life.
