EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Jellyfish, 1863-79" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. Created by Raimundo Petraroja, a renowned artist of that era, this colour lithograph showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image is part of the private collection and was originally published in a popular zoological atlas called "A Atlante zoologico popolare". The artwork beautifully captures the ethereal beauty of jellyfish as they gracefully float through the ocean depths. Petraroja's meticulous rendering brings out the vibrant colors and delicate textures of these mesmerizing creatures. One cannot help but be captivated by their translucent bodies and long tentacles gently swaying with the currents. Amongst them, we can spot one particular species - Physalia pelagica or commonly known as Portuguese man-of-war. Its distinct appearance with its gas-filled bladder floating above water adds an intriguing element to this composition. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insight into scientific exploration during that period. It reminds us of how artists like Petraroja played an essential role in documenting and sharing knowledge about various animal species. As we admire this historical masterpiece, let it transport us into a world where art meets science, where beauty intertwines with curiosity, leaving us awe-inspired by nature's wonders captured on paper for eternity.
