The artwork features various species of goldfish including the Goldschley, Orfe, Chinese Goldkarpfen, HochrAocken, and more. Each fish is meticulously illustrated with vibrant colors and intricate details that bring them to life on paper. From the shimmering scales to their graceful movements captured in stillness, this engraving truly celebrates the wonders of nature. Amongst these mesmerizing goldfish are also depicted other fascinating aquatic creatures such as the green tench and Indian humphead.
