Discover the underwater world in a glass sphere: From the vibrant colors of the Nudibranch (Flabellina nobilis) in the field aquarium of Gulen, Norway, to the lush greenery of submerged Water Lettuce (Pistia stratiotes) in a home aquarium. This captivating microcosm has inspired artists throughout history, as seen in Kitao Shigemasa's "Two Women Feeding Fish" from the late 18th century. Fast forward to the 20th century, crayfish and freshwater lobsters became intriguing inhabitants of London Zoo. Women and children marveled at these aquatic wonders, as depicted in La Mode Illustree. Aquariums have also served as tranquil retreats for famous figures, like the England football team during the 1966 World Cup. And let's not forget the allure of Dick Radclyffe & Co.'s Rustic Adornments for enhancing these underwater havens. The fascination with fish tanks continues to captivate us, offering a glimpse into the diverse and beautiful world beneath the surface.
