LS Plate 183: A Stunning 19th Century Illustration of a Spotted Dogfish from the John Reeves Collection This watercolor illustration, LS Plate 183, is a testament to the rich biodiversity of Asian waters and the meticulous work of 19th century tea inspector, John Reeves. Reeves traveled extensively to Canton, China, amassing an impressive collection of Chinese natural history drawings. This particular illustration showcases the intricate details of a Spotted Dogfish, a common coastal shark found in the waters of Asia. The fish is depicted in a lifelike manner, with its elongated body, distinctive blue-grey coloration, and a pattern of white spots covering its body. The illustration also highlights the fish's dorsal and pectoral fins, which are lined with small, triangular fins, and its large, lined lips. The finely detailed scales on the fish's body add to the overall realism of the artwork. The illustration is a masterpiece of the 19th century's natural history tradition, with its vibrant colors and precise attention to detail. The use of blue and orange hues adds depth and contrast to the image, making the Spotted Dogfish stand out against the blank background. This illustration is a valuable addition to the John Reeves Collection, which provides a unique glimpse into the natural history of Asia during the 19th century. The collection is a testament to Reeves' dedication to documenting the natural world and preserving it for future generations. This stunning work of art continues to inspire and fascinate viewers, reminding us of the rich biodiversity that exists in the world's oceans.
