EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph by Karl Joseph Brodtmann, published in Heinrich Rudolf Schinz's Illustrated Natural History of Men and Animals in 1836, showcases three distinct species of dolphins: the hourglass dolphin (Lagenorhynchus cruciger), harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena), and short-beaked common dolphin (Delphinus delphis). The hourglass dolphin, named for the dark hourglass-shaped markings on its sides, is a pelagic species found in the Atlantic and Southern Oceans. The harbor porpoise, the smallest of all porpoises, is a coastal inhabitant of the North Atlantic and North Sea, easily recognized by its rounded forehead and dark blotches. The short-beaked common dolphin, as suggested by its name, is a common sight in temperate and tropical waters worldwide, characterized by its short beak and distinctive crescent-shaped notch on the dorsal fin. Brodtmann's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate depiction of these dolphins' anatomical features, from their streamlined bodies to their distinct coloration and markings. This work of art not only serves as an accurate representation of these fascinating marine mammals but also contributes to the growing body of knowledge in the field of zoology during the 19th century. The lithograph is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world, inspiring appreciation and awe for the creatures that inhabit our oceans.
