EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor drawing depicts the Red Snapper, Lutjanus campechanus, a vibrant and highly prized fish species native to the waters of King Georges Sound in Western Australia and its surrounding neighborhoods. The illustration is one of sixty-seven original watercolor drawings of mammals, reptiles, and fish, accompanied by manuscript notes by Robert Neill, an accomplished naturalist and artist of the time. Neill's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate rendering of the Red Snapper's scales, gills, and fin structures. The fish is shown swimming in the tide, adding a sense of movement and energy to the composition. The Red Snapper, also known as the Northern Red Snapper or Red Free, is a bony fish belonging to the Actinopterygii class, characterized by their ray-finned bodies and the Perciformes order, which includes perch-like fish. More specifically, it is a member of the Lutjanidae family, which is known for its colorful and large-sized fish species. Robert Neill's illustrations were published between 1839 and 1842 and represent an important contribution to the scientific documentation of the unique biodiversity of Australia and its neighboring regions. The Red Snapper drawing is a testament to Neill's dedication to accurately recording the natural world around him and serves as a valuable resource for both scientific and artistic pursuits.
