EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed print captures the beauty and diversity of different kinds of plaices. Created by the German School in the 19th century, this coloured engraving showcases various species of flatfish found in European waters. From left to right, we can identify the Glattbutt (turbot), Flunder (European flounder), Glahrke (common dab), Heilbutt (Atlantic halibut), Steinbutt (brill), and other Pleuronectes species such as rhombus, flesus, limanda, hippoglossus, and maximus. The intricate lines and delicate shading bring these marine creatures to life on paper. Each fish is meticulously depicted with its unique markings and characteristics. The artist's attention to detail allows us to appreciate the distinct features of each species. This artwork originally appeared in "A Bilderbuch für Kinder" (Picture Book for Children) published between 1790-1830 by Friedrich Justin Bertuch. It serves as a testament to both scientific exploration and artistic expression during that era. Whether you are an admirer of nature's wonders or a lover of fine art, this print will surely add a touch of elegance to any space it graces. Displaying this piece invites viewers into an underwater world teeming with diverse aquatic life - a reminder of our planet's rich biodiversity that deserves protection for generations to come.
