EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate print showcases the Tench, Tinca tinca, a freshwater fish native to Europe. The Tench is a member of the Cyprinidae family, also known as the carp family, and is highly valued for its culinary delights and sport fishing. Edward Donovan, a renowned Irish naturalist and artist, meticulously drew and engraved this illustration as part of his Natural History of British Fishes, published between 1802 and 1808 by Donovan and Rivington in London. The intricate details of the Tench's scales, fins, and gills are beautifully captured in this engraving, providing an accurate representation of the species. The Tench is a popular game fish in Europe, particularly in still or slow-moving waters such as ponds, lakes, and canals. It can grow up to 50 cm in length and weigh up to 4 kg. The fish has a distinctive dark olive-green back, lateral stripes, and a light underbelly. Its diet consists mainly of mollusks, crustaceans, and insects. This illustration is a testament to the scientific curiosity and artistic prowess of the early 19th century. It reflects the importance of ichthyology and zoology in the advancement of scientific knowledge during this period. The Tench print is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical record of a beloved European fish species.
