Poster about the flying fish (2), after an old engraving from 1746.

Poster of a flying fish, after a 1746 engraving by the artist and naturalist Marcus Elieser Bloch. Dimensions: 21 X 29 cm. Frame not included. High-quality, thick paper, 250 gsm. Shipped securely in a rigid package. This poster exquisitely depicts a flying fish, recognizable by its oversized, wing-like pectoral fins, which allow it to glide short distances above the water. The iridescent shades of blue and silver on the scales are finely rendered, and the precision of the engraving highlights the fish's aerodynamic silhouette. This type of fish fascinated 18th-century naturalists and continues to intrigue marine wildlife enthusiasts today. Ideal for lovers of antique illustrations or for a marine-inspired wall decoration. This fish, common in tropical seas, was often caught using drift nets or surface trolling lines. The poster thus evokes the world of traditional fishing and old nautical equipment such as dugout canoes, fine hemp lines, and wooden floats.
