Poster of the "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.

This superb illustration showcases the flying fish (Exocoetus evolans), a fascinating species of tropical seas, renowned for its ability to leap several meters out of the water using its large, wing-like pectoral fins. The remarkably fine engraving highlights the colorful details of its scales and the vibrancy of its reddish fins, contrasting with the deep black of its aquatic wings. Ideal for marine wildlife enthusiasts or collectors of natural history curiosities. The poster fits perfectly into a seaside setting or a cabinet of curiosities. It will also appeal to fans of exotic fishing, where flying fish are sometimes caught using light trolling or drift nets. A visual nod to the traditional boats and floating lines used in tropical areas.
