EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate print depicts the Common Bream, Abramis brama, also known as the European Bream or Cyprinus brama. The illustration is taken from Edward Donovan's Natural History of British Fishes, published between 1802 and 1808 by Donovan and F.C. and J. Rivington in London. Donovan's work is considered a seminal contribution to the field of ichthyology, or the study of fish, and this print is a testament to his meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy. The Common Bream is a popular game fish found in both marine and freshwater environments throughout Europe. It is a medium-sized fish, with an average length of around 30 centimeters and a weight of up to 2 kilograms. The species is characterized by its laterally compressed body, large mouth, and distinctive vertical bars on its sides. The intricate engraving and delicate hand-coloring of this print capture the beauty and complexity of the Common Bream's scales, fins, and other features. The background is adorned with various aquatic plants and rocks, further emphasizing the fish's natural habitat. Donovan's Natural History of British Fishes was a groundbreaking work in its time, featuring over 200 plates that documented the diverse range of fish species found in British waters. This print of the Common Bream is a prime example of the high-quality illustrations that were produced as part of this important scientific endeavor. Today, it remains an invaluable resource for researchers, conservationists, and anglers alike, providing a window into the rich biodiversity of the marine and freshwater ecosystems of Europe.
