EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving captures the beauty of three unique and vibrant fish species - the Moorish idol, grey angelfish, and rock beauty. Each fish is meticulously detailed, showcasing their intricate patterns and colors in exquisite detail.
The Moorish idol, with its distinctive black and yellow stripes and elongated dorsal fin, stands out against the blue background. The grey angelfish displays a striking contrast between its dark body and bright orange fins, while the rock beauty dazzles with its bold reds, yellows, and blues.
Created in 1825 by Pee Jr. after an illustration by Jean-Gabriel Pretre from Bernard Germain de Lacepede's Natural History of Oviparous Quadrupeds, Snakes, Fish and Cetaceans, this engraving is a testament to the artistry and scientific accuracy of early natural history illustrations.
As you gaze upon this print, you can almost imagine these majestic creatures swimming gracefully through coral reefs in tropical waters.
