EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of a Flag salmon (Thymallus thymallus), also known as Hesch or thijm-fish. The image is part of the sixth album, which encompasses an array of meticulously detailed drawings featuring fish, shells, and insects. Commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II during the late 16th to early 17th century, these twelve albums were created by Anselmus Boetius de Boodt. The artwork itself is a true testament to De Boodt's artistic prowess and attention to detail. Rendered using various mediums such as paper, pencil, chalk, watercolor paint, deck paint, ink, and pen; this particular piece measures approximately 111 mm in height and 310 mm in width. What makes this print even more intriguing is its inclusion of explanatory text in three languages: Dutch, Latin, and French. This addition allows viewers from different backgrounds to appreciate both the visual splendor of the Flag salmon and gain insights into its characteristics. As you admire this remarkable depiction of nature's wonders captured on paper for eternity, let your imagination transport you back to a time when Emperor Rudolf II sought to document the diverse flora and fauna surrounding him.
