Poster of the three-banded pentapod, based on an old engraving

Poster of the three-banded starfish, after a 1746 engraving by the artist and naturalist Marcus Elieser Bloch. Dimensions: 21 x 29 cm. Frame not included. High-quality, heavyweight paper, 250 gsm. Shipped securely in a rigid package. This magnificent fish, depicted with remarkable finesse, displays three electric blue longitudinal stripes running along its slender body, typical of the three-banded starfish. Its elegant silhouette, forked tail fin, and bright red pectoral fins give it a dynamic, almost vibrant appearance. Native to the tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific, this reef fish is sometimes caught by line or bottom net, often by artisanal fishermen. This poster is an ideal decorative piece for an interior inspired by the marine world, cabinets of curiosities, or for enthusiasts of antique engravings related to fishing and tropical biodiversity.
