EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcolored engraving, created by Pierre after an original illustration by Acaric Baron for the Universal Dictionary of Natural History by Charles d'Orbigny, published in Paris in 1849, showcases three intriguing marine species: the Squirrelfish (Holocentrus adscensionis), the Greater Weever (Trachinus draco), and the head of a Great Barracuda (Sphyraena barracuda). The Squirrelfish, also known as Longnose Squirrelfish or Longnose Grunts, is a common fish found in the Atlantic and Caribbean. They are named for their long, slender snout and their habit of grunting when disturbed. Their bodies are covered in small, hard scales, and they have a distinctive, elongated dorsal fin. The Greater Weever, also known as the Spotted Weever or the Spotted Drummer, is a venomous fish found in the Atlantic and Mediterranean seas. They have a distinctive, elongated, flat head and a slender body covered in small, dark spots. They are also known for their ability to bury themselves in the sand with only their head showing, waiting to ambush unsuspecting prey. The Great Barracuda is a large, powerful predator found in tropical and subtropical waters around the world. They have a long, slender body, large, sharp teeth, and distinctive, elongated pectoral and dorsal fins. They are known for their aggressive hunting behavior and their ability to coordinate their attacks with other barracudas. This beautiful engraving is a testament to the intricate detail and artistry of 19th-century ichthyology, providing a glimpse into the natural world of these fascinating marine creatures.
