EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning depiction of the Pollack fish, scientifically known as Pollachius pollachius. Plate LXVIII from Ichthyologie (STC200700), this artwork is part of Marcus Elieser Bloch's renowned work on natural history, specifically focused on fishes. Engraved by Gabriel Bodenehr and published between 1785-99, this colored engraving beautifully captures the essence of this marine creature. The image portrays a cross-section view of the Pollack fish, belonging to the Gadidae family and closely related to cod. Its distinctive features are highlighted with meticulous detail, allowing viewers to appreciate its unique characteristics. The saltwater habitat in which it thrives is vividly depicted, immersing us in its world beneath the waves. Displayed in a private collection within The Stapleton Collection, this German masterpiece has stood the test of time and remains an invaluable piece of art history. The skillful craftsmanship employed by Andreas-Ludwig Kruger brings life to every stroke engraved on paper. As we admire this remarkable engraving from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us marvel at nature's diversity and beauty encapsulated within this single marine species - the Pollack (Pollachius pollachius).
