EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving from Gottlieb Tobias Wilhelm's Encyclopedia of Natural History captures the intricate beauty of the dragonnet lyre, also known as the Dragonet fish (Callionymus lyra). The detailed illustration showcases the unique features and vibrant colors of this fascinating marine creature, with its elongated body and delicate fins.
Wilhelm, a Bavarian clergyman and naturalist often referred to as the German Buffon, created this masterpiece in Augsburg in 1804. His dedication to capturing the essence of various species through his engravings is evident in this work, which serves as both a scientific study and a work of art.
The dragonnet lyre is depicted with such precision that it almost seems to come alive on paper, swimming gracefully through its underwater habitat. The fine details and meticulous coloring bring out every scale and curve of this fish, making it a true testament to Wilhelm's skill as an illustrator.
As we gaze upon this enchanting image, we are reminded of the vast diversity found in nature and the importance of preserving these precious species for future generations to admire. This print serves as a timeless reminder of the wonders that lie beneath the surface of our oceans.
