EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant and intricate beauty of the American Fresh-water Garpike. Created by an anonymous German artist in the 19th century, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection. The artwork was featured in "Bilder-Atlas zur wissenschaftlich-populären Naturgeschichte der Fische in ihren sämtlichen Hauptformen" (1864), a publication by Leopold Joseph Fitzinger. The image portrays various species such as the common Bowfin or Seekaiman, the common Bichis or Bichir, the marbled Mud Herring, Mudfish, Bald Pike, and the great Catshark. Each creature is meticulously illustrated with remarkable detail and accuracy. Among these fascinating aquatic creatures is the American Fresh-water Garpike itself, known for its distinctive appearance and adaptability to freshwater environments. With its elongated body covered in bony plates and sharp teeth protruding from its snout-like mouth, it exudes an air of prehistoric charm. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also provides valuable insight into different fish species found in nature's vast underwater realm. It captures their diversity while highlighting their unique characteristics. Displayed here courtesy of Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection published by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen; this out-of-copyright artwork allows us to appreciate these magnificent creatures without any commercial implications.
