The gudgeon, scientifically known as Gobio gobio, is a fascinating member of the Carp family (Cyprinidae). This hand-colored chromolithograph, published in 1882, showcases the intricate beauty of this small fish and can be found in various habitats across Europe and Asia, and are often associated with rivers and streams where they thrive amidst their natural surroundings. These resilient creatures have adapted to different conditions and can even survive in polluted waters. In terms of diet they can opportunistic feeders. They consume a wide range of food including bristle worms or polychaetes which make up an important part of their diet. Additionally, they also prey on other small aquatic organisms such as insects and crustaceans. Anglers often target gudgeons for sport fishing due to their abundance and willingness to bite on baited hooks. The Danube gudgeon is particularly sought after by anglers along with crucian carp and bream. This lithographic illustration from c. 1923 depicts edible fish including the gudgeon among other species. It highlights the importance of these fish as a food source for many communities around the world. The artistry continues with engravings showcasing scenes fishing throughout history. These illustrations capture the excitement and skill required to catch these elusive creatures. A colored engraving featuring river fishes provides a visual feast for nature enthusiasts who appreciate the diversity found within freshwater ecosystems. Amongst them is our beloved Gobio gobio -the humble yet captivating gudgeon. German river fish are celebrated through another colored engraving that includes our little friend –the gudgeon- representing its significance within German culture and cuisine. Whether it's for recreational purposes or sustenance, there's no denying that the gudgeon holds a special place in human history. Its presence has been documented through centuries-old illustrations like those seen in gudgeon fishing engravings.
