The illustration is an impressive work of art from the pages of "The Naturalist's Miscellany," published in London in 1800 by George Shaw and Frederick Nodder.

The fish is depicted in a naturalistic setting, with a lush underwater environment teeming with various marine organisms, adding to the overall beauty and allure of the illustration. The Paradise Threadfin, also known as the Blue-eye Threadfin or the Blue-eye Rainbowfish, is a popular species among both scientific and recreational communities. Its unique appearance, with electric blue eyes and a shimmering silver body, has captivated the interest of naturalists and aquarists for centuries. This historical engraving serves as a testament to the rich heritage of zoological illustration and the significant role it played in documenting and preserving the natural world for future generations. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this illustration continue to inspire and captivate viewers, providing a glimpse into the past and the wonders of the natural world.
