The inscription reveals that this intriguing creature, referred to as a "kopfffisch" was caught near Salzburg. The top right corner of the print is numbered as 2, indicating its place within the sixth album of drawings featuring fish, shells, and insects. These twelve albums were commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II around 1600 and are attributed to Anselmus Boetius de Boodt. Each album contains meticulously detailed illustrations of animals, birds, and plants from that era. This particular album includes explanatory notes in Dutch, Latin, and French languages. The medium used for this artwork is diverse - paper serves as the canvas while pencil, chalk, watercolor paint, deck paint ink pen bring life to these extraordinary depictions.
