EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "The Atlantic Trumpetfish: Aulostomus maculatus, a Stunning 19th-Century Handcolored Engraving from Orbigny's Universal Dictionary of Natural History" This handcolored engraving showcases the Atlantic trumpetfish, Aulostomus maculatus, also known as Aulostoma maculatum, in its intricate detail and beauty. The image was created by the skilled hands of Oudet, based on an original illustration by Frank, for the prestigious "Universal Dictionary of Natural History" (Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle) by Charles d'Orbigny, published in Paris in 1849. The Atlantic trumpetfish is a remarkable deep-water species, characterized by its elongated, cylindrical body and distinct, trumpet-shaped mouth. The fish is further adorned with a series of vertical, dark bars, giving it an attractive, striped appearance. This engraving not only serves as a testament to the exquisite artistry of the 19th century but also highlights the fascination and curiosity of naturalists during that era. The intricate details of the fish's scales, fins, and gills are expertly captured in this handcolored engraving, making it a valuable addition to any collection of ichthyological art or natural history. The rich colors and fine lines bring the Atlantic trumpetfish to life, allowing us to appreciate its unique beauty and natural history significance. This stunning work of art is a reminder of the important role that natural history illustrations and engravings played in advancing scientific knowledge during the 19th century. It is a testament to the skill and dedication of the naturalists, illustrators, and engravers who meticulously documented the natural world for future generations to learn from and enjoy.
