EDITORS COMMENTS
This image dates back to the 1860s and showcases the Common Bleak (Alburnus alburnus), a freshwater fish native to Europe. The Common Bleak is a member of the Cyprinidae family, which includes over 2,000 species of minnows, carps, and related fish. The Common Bleak is a small, silver-yellow fish that can grow up to 20 centimeters in length. It is an important species in various freshwater ecosystems, playing a crucial role as a food source for larger fish and birds. This photograph, taken in the Victorian era, provides a glimpse into the natural world of over a century ago. The Common Bleak was a common sight in European rivers and lakes during that time, but its populations have declined significantly due to habitat loss, pollution, and overfishing. The intricate details of the fish's scales and fins are beautifully captured in this print, revealing the delicate beauty of this underappreciated species. The Common Bleak's silver-yellow coloration shines through the clear water, making it a striking subject for this photograph. As we admire this image, we are reminded of the importance of preserving the natural world and the diverse range of species that inhabit our planet. The Common Bleak may be a small fish, but it plays a significant role in its ecosystem and is a testament to the beauty and complexity of the natural world.
