EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration showcases the Black Bass (Micropterus punctulatus), a freshwater sunfish native to the eastern coast of North America, as depicted by Sir William Coles Medlycott in the nineteenth century. Sir William Coles Medlycott (1831-1887), a renowned British natural history illustrator, captured the intricate details of this magnificent fish in this stunning work of art. The Black Bass, a member of the Centrarchidae family, is identified by its black lateral stripe, olive-green back, and white belly. This illustration is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill that characterized Victorian-era natural history illustrations. The Black Bass, a popular game fish, is a ray-finned fish belonging to the order Perciformes and the class Actinopterygii. Its placement within the Sauropsida, a group that includes reptiles and birds, and the Osteichthyes, a group of bony fish, reflects its evolutionary history. This illustration not only serves as a beautiful work of art but also as an important record of natural history, providing a glimpse into the natural world of the nineteenth century.
