EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of two remarkable fish species, the Shi drum and the Cingle. Created by Cellai in the 19th century, this handcoloured copperplate stipple engraving is a true masterpiece of scientific illustration. The Shi drum, scientifically known as Umbrina cirrosa, takes center stage in this composition. Its sleek body and intricate patterns are meticulously captured by Cellai's skilled hand. The vibrant colors bring life to every scale and fin, making it appear as if it could swim right off the page. Beside the Shi drum stands its equally fascinating companion, the Cingle or Zingel zingel. This freshwater fish displays a unique blend of elegance and strength with its streamlined form and striking markings. The attention to detail in capturing each delicate feature is truly awe-inspiring. Jean Gabriel Pretre's masterful drawing combined with Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin's direction brings these creatures to life on paper. Published by Batelli e Figli in Florence, Italy in 1837 as part of Antoine Laurent de Jussieu's Dictionary of Natural Science, this print exemplifies both artistic skill and scientific accuracy. Considered one of the greatest French botanical illustrators of his time, Turpin has immortalized these marine wonders for generations to come. As we gaze upon this enchanting image today, we are reminded of nature's boundless diversity and endless fascination with all living beings that inhabit our planet's waters.
