EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate stipple engraving, titled "Crown crab (Hymenosoma orbiculare) and Indian egera crab (Phalangipus indicus)" is an exquisite example of the naturalistic illustrations found in Antoine Laurent de Jussieu's "Dizionario delle Scienze Naturali," published in Florence, Italy in 1837. The illustration was engraved by Stanghi, with drawings by Jean Gabriel Pretre and direction by Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin. Turpin (1775-1840), a French botanical illustrator of the 19th century, is considered one of the greatest in his field. This illustration showcases his exceptional skill in capturing the intricate details of these two crab species. The crown crab, also known as the Norwegian crown crab or the king crab, is depicted with its distinctive, spiky crown on its head, while the Indian egera crab, also known as the Indian spiny lobster or the Indian scampi, is shown with its long, slender legs and spiny antennae. The crown crab (Hymenosoma norvegicus) is native to the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, while the Indian egera crab (Phalangipus atya) is found in the Indian and Pacific oceans. Both crabs are important commercial and culinary species, with the crown crab being a popular delicacy in Norway and the Indian egera crab being used in various dishes, such as paella and bouillabaisse. This illustration provides a glimpse into the natural history of these fascinating crustaceans and showcases the exceptional artistry of Turpin and his team. The intricate stipple engraving technique used in this illustration allows for a high level of detail and texture, making it a true masterpiece of natural science illustration.
