EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate XII from Animalia Aqvatilia et Cochiliata (Aqva) by Joris Hoefnagel, circa 1575-1580, is a stunning work of art showcasing a vibrant array of aquatic life and marine birds. This exquisite watercolor and gouache illustration on vellum, with an oval border in gold, is a testament to the artist's exceptional skill and attention to detail. Joris Hoefnagel, a European artist of the sixteenth century, meticulously captured the beauty and diversity of aquatic creatures and marine birds in this magnificent plate. The illustration includes a variety of broadbills, swordfish, hiphias gladius, and other fish and fishes, each rendered with remarkable accuracy and color. The plate is part of Hoefnagel's larger work, Animalia Aqvatilia et Cochiliata (Aqva), a comprehensive and detailed record of aquatic life and marine creatures. Hoefnagel's work was groundbreaking for its time, as it combined both scientific accuracy and artistic beauty in a way that had never been seen before. This plate is a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery, as it not only showcases the natural history of the aquatic world but also represents the artistic heritage of the European Renaissance. It is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
