EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Atlantic Cod, a species of fish that has been an important part of human history for centuries. Created by artist Petraroja Raimundo in the late 19th century, this colour lithograph captures the beauty and intricacies of this marine creature. The image is taken from "A Atlante zoologico popolare" a popular zoological atlas compiled from various Italian and foreign works on zoology. Published between 1863 and 1879 by Giovanni Boschi, this comprehensive work aimed to provide readers with up-to-date information on different animal species. In this particular illustration, we see the Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua) depicted with remarkable detail. The vibrant colors used by Petraroja bring out the unique characteristics of this fish, making it come alive on paper. The Atlantic Cod holds great significance not only as a subject of artistic representation but also as an essential food source for many cultures around the world. Its historical importance in trade and exploration cannot be understated. Preserved in a private collection, this print serves as a reminder of our deep connection to nature and its diverse inhabitants. It allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such detailed illustrations and the scientific knowledge gained through studying these creatures.
