EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate stipple engraving, titled "Red lionfish and Blue blanquillo," 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, with drawings by Jean Gabriel Pretre and direction by Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin and Batelli e Figli. The illustration features two vibrant and intricately detailed marine species: the Red lionfish (Pterois volitans) and the Blue blanquillo, also known as the Sapphire damsel, Blue paon, or Harlequin sweetlips (Taenianotus latovittatus, Tenianoto striata larga). The Red lionfish, with its distinctive red and white stripes and venomous spines, is a member of the Scorpionfish family (Chetodonoide). The Blue blanquillo, with its iridescent blue and silver scales, is a type of damselfish belonging to the Plectorhinchus family (Plectorhinchidae). Turpin, a French botanical illustrator of the 19th century, is renowned for his exceptional talent and attention to detail. His direction and oversight of this illustration resulted in a breathtaking representation of these two fascinating marine creatures. The Red lionfish and Blue blanquillo are depicted in their natural habitat, surrounded by the rich colors and textures of the ocean floor. This beautiful illustration showcases the exquisite artistry and scientific accuracy of the time, providing a captivating glimpse into the natural world of the past. It serves as a testament to the beauty and diversity of marine life and the dedication of those who sought to document and preserve it for future generations.
