EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving from Gottlieb Tobias Wilhelm's Encyclopedia of Natural History transports us back to the 18th century in Europe, where workers are diligently preparing and drying fish in a rustic shed. The scene captures the essence of traditional fishing practices during this era, showcasing the laborious process of preserving Pollack, also known as Pollachius pollachius.
The detailed depiction of the workers engaged in their tasks offers a glimpse into the daily life and livelihoods of individuals who relied on fishing for sustenance and commerce. The image conveys a sense of industry and skill as each worker contributes to the collective effort of preparing these valuable resources.
Wilhelm's expertise as both a clergyman and naturalist is evident in his meticulous portrayal of this scene, highlighting not only the practical aspects but also the scientific significance of studying fish species like Pollack. Through his work, he sought to educate others about the diverse flora and fauna that populate our world.
As we admire this historical print, we are reminded of the rich tapestry of human history intertwined with nature's bounty. It serves as a testament to our enduring connection with the environment and our ongoing quest for knowledge about its wonders.
