EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the year 1864, showcases a stunning specimen of the Carter, Mary Sole, or Queens Sole (Solea catharus), a flatfish belonging to the Soleidae family, also known as Whiff. The fish is named after Mary Carter, who was the Duchess of Richmond and Lennox during the Victorian era. This flatfish, with its unique brown and beige coloration, was a common sight in the waters of the North Sea and the English Channel during the 1860s. The photograph, a testament to the natural wonders of the marine world, captures the intricate details of the Carter, Mary Sole's, flat, brown body and its large, expressive eyes. The fish's pectoral fins are spread wide, giving the illusion of wings, adding to its ethereal beauty. The Carter, Mary Sole, or Queens Sole, was an essential food source for coastal communities during the Victorian era. Its delicate and succulent flesh was highly prized, and it was often served in the finest restaurants and dining rooms. However, this photograph is not a commercial one, but rather a celebration of the natural beauty and historical significance of this fascinating flatfish. The photograph's vintage aesthetic transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the natural world as it was captured over a century ago. The Carter, Mary Sole, or Queens Sole, remains an iconic symbol of the rich marine biodiversity that exists beneath the waves, a reminder of the importance of preserving and protecting our oceans for future generations to enjoy.
