EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate stipple engraving, titled "Spinarella piccola, Maccarello comune" from the "Dizionario delle Scienze Naturali" or "Dictionary of Natural Sciences," published in Florence, Italy, in 1837, showcases two fascinating marine species: the Three-spined Stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus, 1) and the Atlantic Mackerel (Scomber scombrus, 2). The Three-spined Stickleback, also known as the European Three-spined Stickleback or Spined Stickleback, is a small, spiny fish native to the North Atlantic and North Sea. It is depicted here with a greenish-brown body and three prominent spines along its back. The Atlantic Mackerel, on the other hand, is a large, edible fish that is a common sight in the North Atlantic. Its body is silver with blue-green back and sides, and it is adorned with dark stripes. The fish is shown swimming among lush seaweed and algae, including Desmarestia and Dresnayi. The illustration was created by the renowned French botanical illustrator, Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin (1775-1840), who is considered one of the greatest botanical illustrators of the 19th century. The engraving was drawn by Jean Gabriel Pretre and directed by Turpin, with the copperplate engraving executed by Corsi. The intricate details of the fish and the vibrant colors of the seaweed and algae are a testament to the skill and artistry of these talented artists. This beautiful illustration not only showcases the natural beauty of these two marine species but also provides a glimpse into the history of marine science and the advancements in botanical illustration during the 19th century.
