EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Wonderful fish" takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the depths of the ocean. Created by an anonymous German artist from the 19th century, this print showcases a diverse array of fascinating marine creatures that are sure to ignite our curiosity. The artwork features six distinct species: the Stachel-Kugel (short sunfish), the schwimmende Kopf (nile pufferfish), the Turmträger (humpback turretfish), the Schildkröten-Fisch (birdbeak burrfish), and two striped varieties known as gestreifte Stachelbauch. Each fish is meticulously illustrated with vibrant colors and intricate details, allowing us to appreciate their unique characteristics. Published in Friedrich Justin Bertuch's renowned "Bilderbuch für Kinder" between 1790 and 1830, this engraving offers a glimpse into both artistic mastery and scientific exploration of its time. The delicate strokes capture not only these remarkable underwater inhabitants but also evoke a sense of wonder for nature's diversity. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the vastness and beauty hidden beneath our oceans' surface. It serves as a testament to humanity's ongoing fascination with aquatic lifeforms while encouraging us to protect these fragile ecosystems for generations to come. Now preserved within a private collection, this historical artwork continues to inspire awe and appreciation for both artistry and marine biology alike.
