The fish, with its distinctive gold bar marking between the eyes, is a prominent member of the Sparidae family, commonly known as seabreams or sea breams. During the Victorian era, natural history was a popular area of study and exploration, and the meticulous illustrations of various species, including the Gilt-Head Bream, were highly sought after. The rich orange and yellow hues of this fish's body, along with its prominent fins, were accurately depicted in this exquisite print. The Gilt-Head Bream is a common fish found in the Mediterranean and the eastern Atlantic Ocean. It is a highly adaptable species that can thrive in various habitats, from rocky shores to sandy bottoms. With an average length of around 30 cm, this fish is a popular target for both recreational and commercial fisheries.
