This print showcases a remarkable piece of natural history - "The Langoustine" by Marc Elieser Bloch, an iconic work from the late 18th century. The engraving, originally published in Paris, Berlin, and London in 1787 as part of Bloch's renowned Ichtyologie series, is now held in a private collection. Bloch, a prominent figure in the field of natural history during his time (1723-1799), meticulously captured the essence of this crustacean with incredible precision and detail. The langoustine comes to life on paper through delicate lines and intricate shading that highlight its unique features. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to the 18th century when scientific exploration was flourishing.

Giancarlo Costa expertly captures this historical gem through his lens, preserving it for future generations to appreciate.
