EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, dated 1862, showcases the intricately detailed features of the Black Seabream, scientifically known as Spondyliosoma cantharus. Also referred to as the Black Bream or Old Wife, this exquisite fish is native to the Mediterranean and the eastern Atlantic Ocean. The Black Seabream is easily identifiable by its striking orange and green coloration, with vertical black stripes running along its sides. Its large, expressive eyes and prominent dorsal and pectoral fins add to its distinctive appearance. This photograph, taken during the Victorian era, offers a glimpse into the natural world of the 1860s. The Black Seabream was a common sight in European waters and was highly prized for its culinary delights. Its meat was considered a delicacy, and it was often served in upscale restaurants and homes. Despite its popularity, the Black Seabream was not overfished during this period due to the lack of industrialized fishing methods. Instead, fishing was done primarily by small-scale, artisanal fishermen using traditional methods, such as hand lines and traps. This photograph not only serves as a beautiful representation of the Black Seabream but also as a reminder of a time when our relationship with nature was more intimate and sustainable. Today, the Black Seabream remains an important part of Mediterranean and Atlantic marine ecosystems, and efforts are being made to ensure its continued survival in the face of modern fishing practices and climate change.
