EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intriguing piece of artwork titled "Page 21. Unidentified fish (w/c on paper)" by an unknown artist from the 18th century. Housed in the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales, this image is part of a larger volume called "Zoology of N. [New] Holland etc". The album contains 32 watercolours depicting various fish and an impressive collection of 112 watercolours featuring birds. The unidentified fish depicted in this particular artwork mesmerizes viewers with its vibrant colors and intricate details. Painted using watercolors on paper, the artist skillfully captures the essence of this aquatic creature from a side view perspective. The life-sized portrayal allows us to appreciate every scale and fin as if observing it in its natural habitat. With its origins traced back to Australia's marine fauna, this enigmatic species adds to our understanding of the country's diverse wildlife. Although we may not know the exact identity or scientific classification of this fish, it serves as a testament to both the artistic talent and scientific curiosity prevalent during that era. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' efforts in preserving and sharing these historical treasures through fine art prints like this one, we can marvel at nature's wonders while immersing ourselves in centuries-old zoological exploration.
