EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcolored copperplate engraving, titled "Bluefin Tuna (Thunnus thynnus) and Tuna Fishing with Nets," is an exquisite illustration from Gottlieb Tobias Wilhelm's Encyclopedia of Natural History: Fish, published in Augsburg, Germany, in 1804. The image depicts a large school of Bluefin tuna, a highly prized marine creature known for its vibrant blue-green back, silver belly, and distinctive long, flat bill. The fishermen in the scene are shown employing a traditional method of tuna fishing using a large, circular net. The boats, positioned in a semi-circle around the school, have raised their nets, encircling the unsuspecting fish. The intricate details of the engraving show the skill and artistry of the craftsmen who created it, as well as the dedication of Wilhelm, a Bavarian clergyman and naturalist, to documenting the natural world. This illustration is a testament to the beauty and complexity of the Bluefin tuna and the rich history of ichthyology, the study of fish. The image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing both the majesty of the Bluefin tuna and the ingenuity of the fishing methods used to catch them.
