Poster of a mackerel, 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 g. Shipped securely in a rigid package. This illustration highlights the sleek silhouette and vibrant colors of the common mackerel, an iconic fish of the Atlantic coast. Its blue-green body with metallic reflections, striped with dark bands on its back, contrasts with the silvery belly, typical of the species. This exquisitely detailed drawing faithfully captures the nuances of its anatomy: well-defined fins, a pronounced lateral line, and an expressive eye. Mackerel is highly prized by sea anglers, especially when using lures or rigs. It can be caught with a rod and reel, drift nets, or traditional handlines. This poster will delight fans of coastal fishing, boats, reels and fish baskets, as well as enthusiasts of antique marine illustration.
