EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of two deep-sea creatures, the Roughhead grenadier or onion-eye grenadier (Macrourus berglax) and the hollowsnout grenadier (Coelorinchus caelorhincus). The handcoloured copperplate stipple engraving, created by Corsi in the 19th century, brings these remarkable animals to life with stunning detail. The Roughhead grenadier is a mesmerizing creature with its distinctively rough head and striking onion-like eyes. Its elongated body gracefully glides through the depths of the ocean, while its vibrant colors add a touch of elegance to its appearance. In contrast, the hollowsnout grenadier possesses an intriguing feature - a unique snout that sets it apart from other species. This fascinating adaptation allows it to thrive in its marine habitat. Published in Antoine Laurent de Jussieu's Dizionario delle Scienze Naturali (Dictionary of Natural Science) in Florence, Italy in 1837, this illustration is a testament to Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin's exceptional artistic direction and Jean Gabriel Pretre's skillful drawing. Turpin himself is renowned as one of France's greatest botanical illustrators during the 19th century. As we gaze upon this extraordinary image captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of nature's boundless wonders and our responsibility to protect these precious creatures for future generations.
