EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving titled "East Indian fish" takes us on a visual journey into the depths of the ocean. Created by an anonymous German artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a variety of exotic marine creatures that inhabit the waters of East India. The composition is filled with vibrant hues and intricate details, capturing the essence of these fascinating sea dwellers. From the majestic long-haired mirrorfish to the enchanting flying dragonhead, each species depicted in this artwork possesses its own unique charm and allure. Amongst them, we can spot Zeus gallus, Zeus crinitus, Coryphaena plumierii, Scorpaena horrida, and scorpaena volitans - names that evoke mystery and intrigue. The estuarine stonefish lurks stealthily amidst coral reefs while sand tilefish gracefully glides through turquoise waters. An African pompano adds a touch of elegance to this underwater tableau. Published in Friedrich Justin Bertuch's renowned "Bilderbuch für Kinder" (Picture Book for Children) between 1790-1830, this print not only serves as an aesthetic delight but also as an educational tool for young minds eager to explore nature's wonders. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts and ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's dedication to sharing historical art treasures with audiences worldwide; we have access to this remarkable piece today. Let it serve as a reminder of our planet's incredible biodiversity and inspire us to protect these
