EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely detailed hand-colored steel engraving depicts the Bocachico, or Koulimata (Prochilodus rubrotaeniatus), a striking and vibrant freshwater fish native to the rivers and waterways of South America. The engraving, created by W.H. Lizars after an original illustration by James Stewart, is a beautiful example of the high-quality work produced for Sir William Jardine's Naturalists Library: Ichthyology, published in Edinburgh in 1841. The Bocachico, also known as the Pale Red-streaked Salmon Carp or Rubro-taeniatus Catfish, is a member of the characid family and is characterized by its elongated body, large pectoral and dorsal fins, and distinctive red lateral stripes. This fish is found in the rivers and tributaries of the Amazon and Orinoco basins, and is an important food source for local communities. The intricate engraving captures the fish's distinctive features, from its pointed snout and large eyes to its colorful scales and fin details. The use of hand-coloring adds an additional layer of depth and realism to the image, making it a valuable addition to any collection of natural history prints. The Naturalists Library, founded by Sir William Jardine, was a groundbreaking publication that aimed to document and preserve the natural history of the world. This engraving of the Bocachico is a testament to the dedication and expertise of the team behind the project, and remains an impressive example of the beauty and diversity of the natural world.
