EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Roach" from a renowned publication titled "A Treatise on Fish and Fish-ponds" published in 1832. The hand-coloured engraving, created by the talented artist Eleazar Albin (fl. 1713-59), is a true masterpiece that has stood the test of time. In this artwork, we are presented with an exquisite depiction of the roach fish, meticulously detailed to capture its unique anatomy and beauty. Every scale, fin, and body part is flawlessly portrayed, revealing the intricate complexity of this aquatic organism. Albin's expertise as an anatomist shines through in this piece as he skillfully brings to life the essence of wildlife within his engravings. The roach fish featured here belongs to the species rubiculus or rubellio or rutilius - a fascinating detail that adds depth to our understanding of this remarkable creature. As we gaze upon this enchanting image, we are transported into the underwater world where these magnificent creatures reside. The vibrant colours chosen for hand-colouring enhance our appreciation for both their physical attributes and their natural habitat. "The Roach" print serves as a testament to Albin's artistic talent and dedication to capturing nature's wonders with precision and artistry. It stands as a timeless reminder of how art can illuminate scientific knowledge while simultaneously inspiring awe and admiration for Earth's diverse animal kingdom.
