EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolor print of Thyrsites atun, commonly known as the barracuda, created by the Port Jackson Painter in the late 18th century. This beautiful artwork is part of the Watling Collection and showcases the intricate details and vibrant colors of this formidable marine predator. Barracudas are large, spiky-finned fish belonging to the Sphyraenidae family, which also includes the infamous great barracuda. Thyrsites atun can be found in various tropical and subtropical waters of the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans, including the waters of Australasia. In this stunning illustration, the Port Jackson Painter masterfully captures the barracuda's distinctive forked tail fin, elongated body, and sharp, fang-like teeth. The silver scales shimmer in the water, and the fish's piercing gaze seems to follow the viewer, making it a true masterpiece of 18th-century marine art. Barracudas are apex predators, and their elongated bodies and large, powerful jaws make them formidable hunters. They are classified as bony fish, or Osteichthyes, and belong to the ray-finned fish, or Actinopterygii, order Perciformes. Other related species include the Cape Snoek (Thyrsites atun caudimarginatus) and the Snake Mackerel (Gempylus serpens), which are also part of the Sphyraenidae family. This exquisite watercolor print not only serves as a beautiful work of art but also provides a glimpse into the natural history of the barracuda and its importance in the marine ecosystem during the 18th century. The Port Jackson Painter's "Wel-gnoo-roo" is a testament to the artist's skill and the fascination with the natural world that existed during this time.
