EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The coryphene of the Mediterranean" after the renowned book "Histoire naturelle des poissons" by Cuvier and Valenciennes, published in Paris in 1828. The artwork belongs to a private collection and was created by an anonymous French School artist from the 19th century. The image depicts a stunning engraving that beautifully captures the essence of this majestic fish species. The coryphene, also known as dolphinfish or mahi-mahi, is showcased with intricate details and lifelike precision. Its vibrant colors shimmer against a dark background, making it truly stand out. This piece not only serves as an artistic representation but also holds significant historical value within the realm of natural history. It pays homage to George Cuvier (1769-1832), a prominent figure in zoology who co-authored this groundbreaking work on fishes. Giancarlo Costa skillfully photographed this print, preserving its original charm for generations to come. This photograph offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both artistry and scientific exploration simultaneously. Whether you are an animal lover, wildlife enthusiast, or simply intrigued by historical engravings, this image will undoubtedly captivate your attention. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with nature's wonders and our ongoing quest for knowledge about the world around us.
