EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate print depicts the Rudd, Scardinius erythrophthalmus, also known as the Red-eye or Common Rudd. The fish is shown in detailed accuracy, reflecting the meticulous work of the renowned Irish naturalist and illustrator, Edward Donovan. The Rudd is a freshwater fish native to Europe, specifically in the rivers and lakes of the British Isles, France, and the Netherlands. With vibrant red eyes and an elongated dorsal fin, this species is easily distinguishable among other cyprinids. Donovan's Natural History of British Fishes, published between 1802 and 1808, was a groundbreaking work in the field of ichthyology and zoology. The publication showcased Donovan's exceptional skill in drawing and engraving, as well as his deep understanding of the natural world. The handcoloured copperplate prints in this series are considered some of the most beautiful and accurate representations of British fishes from the time. The Rudd was an essential species for both commercial and recreational fishing during the 18th and 19th centuries. Its attractive appearance and delicious taste made it a popular target for anglers. Today, the Rudd remains an important species in European freshwater ecosystems and continues to be enjoyed by anglers. This print serves as a testament to the beauty and importance of the natural world, as well as the dedication of naturalists like Edward Donovan to documenting it.
