EDITORS COMMENTS
This image dates back to the late 1870s and showcases the Common Roach, scientifically known as Rutilus rutilus. The Common Roach is a freshwater fish species native to Europe, and is a popular game fish in many waters across the continent. The photograph, taken in the Victorian era, captures the vibrant colors and intricate patterns of this beautiful fish. The Common Roach is characterized by its bright red or orange color along the sides, with a silver belly and black spots on its fins. Its eyes are large and expressive, adding to its striking appearance. During the Victorian era, the pursuit of natural history was a popular pastime for the affluent classes. Collecting and documenting specimens from the natural world was a way to showcase wealth and knowledge. This photograph is a testament to that era's fascination with the natural world and the desire to document and preserve its wonders. The Common Roach was an important food source for many communities in Europe, and was also highly valued as a game fish. Angling was a popular pastime, and the Common Roach was a common catch for amateur and professional anglers alike. This photograph may have been taken for scientific documentation, or as a memento of a successful fishing trip. Today, the Common Roach remains an important species in European waters, and is a beloved fish among anglers and nature enthusiasts. This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich natural history of Europe and the importance of preserving and appreciating the natural world.
