EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, captured in the year 1862, showcases a majestic Skate (Rajidae family) specimen, a fascinating flatfish that has graced the depths of the marine world for millions of years. The Skate, with its distinctive elongated wings and flat, disc-like body, is a common sight in the North Atlantic and North Sea. The Victorian era, in which this photograph was taken, was a time of great fascination with the natural world. Natural history collections were expanding rapidly, and the study of marine life was no exception. This Skate print is a testament to the curiosity and wonder that drove collectors and scientists of the time to explore and document the intricacies of the natural world. The Skate's large, expressive eyes, which are perfectly adapted for hunting in the dark depths of the ocean, are a striking feature of this image. Its long, venomous spines, which run along its back and tail, are not visible in this photograph, but were well known to fishermen and sailors of the time. These spines, along with the Skate's ability to camouflage itself on the ocean floor, make it a formidable and intriguing creature. This historical print not only offers a glimpse into the past, but also serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and studying the natural world for future generations. The Skate, with its ancient lineage and unique characteristics, continues to captivate and inspire us, as it has done for centuries.
