EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate stipple engraving, created in 1837, showcases two intriguing marine invertebrates: the Sea Mouse, Aphrodita aculeata (Sea mouse, Aphrodita aculeata 1), and the Spiny Sea Mouse, Laetmonice hystrix (Sea mouse, Laetmonice hystrix 2). The Sea Mouse, also known as the Ermine Sea-Horse or Eumolpe muricata, is a small, elongated, worm-like creature with a bulbous head and a long, prehensile tail. Its body is covered in tiny, hair-like bristles, giving it a furry appearance. The Spiny Sea Mouse, on the other hand, is characterized by its spiny, scale-covered body, which provides it with excellent camouflage among the rocks on the seabed. The illustration was produced as part of Antoine Laurent de Jussieu's Dizionario delle Scienze Naturali, or Dictionary of Natural Science, published in Florence, Italy. The engraving was expertly executed by Carini, with drawings by Jean Gabriel Pretre and direction by Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin. Turpin, a French botanical illustrator of the 19th century, is renowned for his meticulous attention to detail and exceptional artistic skill. The Sea Mouse and Spiny Sea Mouse are both important components of the marine ecosystem, playing roles in the food chain and contributing to the overall health and balance of their habitats. This beautiful and intricately detailed engraving serves as a testament to the rich biodiversity of the marine world and the remarkable artistry of the naturalists and illustrators of the past.
