EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant and exotic Red Poon fish, scientifically known as Chelidonichthys lucerna. The image is part of a larger collection commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II in the late 16th to early 17th century. Created by Anselmus Boetius de Boodt, a renowned artist of that era, this particular piece is from the sixth album which focuses on drawings of fish, shells, and insects. The Red Poon stands out with its striking colors and intricate details captured through various artistic techniques such as pencil sketches, chalk outlines, watercolor accents, and ink embellishments. Its distinct features are beautifully highlighted against a backdrop of deck paint. Intriguingly, the print also includes an inscription in Latin pasted at the bottom right corner. This adds an air of mystery to the artwork as it invites viewers to delve deeper into its meaning. Displayed alongside other albums featuring animals, birds, and plants known during that time period; this collection provides valuable insights into the natural world as understood in 1600. Accompanied by explanations in Dutch, Latin, and French languages; these drawings serve not only as aesthetic masterpieces but also educational resources for those interested in historical zoology. Overall, this print captures both artistry and scientific curiosity within its dimensions of approximately 139mm height by 300mm width. It offers a glimpse into nature's wonders while paying homage to centuries-old craftsmanship.
