Plate 107A from the Loten Collection: A Stunning 18th Century Illustration of the Moon Wrasse, Thalassoma lunare This exquisite 18th century illustration, Plate 107A from the Loten Collection, depicts the Moon Wrasse, Thalassoma lunare, a vibrant and striking bony fish belonging to the Labridae family. Painted by Pieter Cornelis de Bevere between 1754 and 1757, this masterpiece showcases the intricate details of this red and green-striped fish's anatomy. The Moon Wrasse, also known as the Red-stripe Wrasse or the Red-stripe Moorish Idol, is a popular marine fish found in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. This perciform fish, characterized by its compressed body shape and ray-finned swimming appendages, is a beautiful example of the diversity and coloration found within the Actinopterygii, or ray-finned fish, class. In this illustration, we see the Moon Wrasse in detail, with its distinct head and tail fin shapes, as well as its prominent dorsal, anal, and caudal fins. The fish's body is adorned with bold, alternating red and green stripes, which provide excellent camouflage among the coral reefs it inhabits. The Moon Wrasse's head is adorned with a small mouth, lined with sharp teeth, and large, expressive eyes. This stunning illustration, part of the Loten Collection, offers a glimpse into the natural world as it was observed and documented during the 18th century. Pieter Cornelis de Bevere's masterful painting technique captures the essence of the Moon Wrasse, showcasing its beauty and unique features for future generations to appreciate. With its rich history and intricate details, this illustration serves as a testament to the importance of natural history documentation and the artistic skill of the past. The Moon Wrasse, Thalassoma lunare, remains a captivating and fascinating creature, both in its natural habitat and in the pages of history.
