EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful hand-colored copperplate stipple engraving, titled "Sea pen species," is an exquisite illustration from Antoine Laurent de Jussieu's "Dizionario delle Scienze Naturali," or "Dictionary of Natural Sciences," published in Florence, Italy, in 1837. The illustration was engraved by Corsi, drawn by Jean Gabriel Pretre, and directed by the renowned French botanical illustrator Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin. The illustration showcases two distinct species of sea pens: Pteroeides griseum and Veretillum cynomorium. Sea pens are a type of soft coral that resemble underwater plants, with elongated, feathery branches. The first species, Pteroeides griseum, is depicted on the left side of the image, with its brown, sedge-like branches. The second species, Veretillum cynomorium, is illustrated on the right, featuring longer, darker branches that resemble galingale or flatsedge. The common names for these sea pens, "cipero scuro" and "giunco nero," respectively, reflect their resemblance to terrestrial vegetation. Sea pens are not only visually striking but also play an essential role in marine ecosystems, providing habitats for various marine organisms. This illustration is a testament to the intricate detail and artistry of 19th-century botanical illustration. Turpin, one of the greatest French botanical illustrators of the time, expertly captured the delicate features of these sea pen species, making this a valuable addition to any collection of historical botanical art.
