EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving from Friedrich Johann Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder showcases a mesmerizing array of marine creatures from the 18th century. The image features the fascinating Electric eel, Electrophorus electricus, known for its ability to generate electricity, alongside the menacing eyed electric ray, Torpedo torpedo. Also depicted are the Brazilian batfish, Ogcocephalus vespertilio, with its unique appearance resembling that of a bat; the striking longhorn cowfish, Lactoria cornuta, distinguished by its horn-like projections on its head; and the sargassum fish Histrio histrio, which camouflages itself among floating seaweed.
Each creature in this composition exudes a sense of mystery and wonder, inviting viewers to delve into the world of natural history and zoology. The intricate details captured in this engraving highlight the skill and artistry of 18th-century scientific illustrators.
As we gaze upon these enchanting sea creatures frozen in time through this historical print, we are reminded of the endless diversity and beauty found within our oceans. This artwork serves as a timeless reminder of humanity's ongoing fascination with nature and our continuous quest for knowledge about the world around us.
