EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts the Spanish Hogfish, Bodianus rufus, also known as the Falcated Sparus or Sparus falcatus. The illustration was drawn and engraved by the skilled hand of Richard Polydore Nodder and published in George Shaw and Frederick Nodder's The Naturalist's Miscellany in London, 1806. The Spanish Hogfish is a popular fish in the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean, and is easily distinguishable by its unique features. Its body is elongated and compressed, with a large head and a prominent barbel under the lower jaw. The fish is covered in small, polka-dot like scales, which are a golden-brown color with a reddish tint. The Spanish Hogfish is a highly sought-after species among fishermen due to its delicious taste and firm texture. In this illustration, the fish is depicted lying on a bed of coral, showcasing its vibrant colors and intricate patterns. The attention to detail in the engraving is remarkable, from the delicate scales to the realistic depiction of the coral and other marine life in the background. This beautiful illustration is a testament to the natural history artistry of the early 19th century and provides a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of the underwater world.
