EDITORS COMMENTS
by William Ellis is a captivating watercolor illustration from the extensive collection of sketches created by the English artist during Captain James Cook's third voyage of exploration, which took place between 1776 and 1780. The voyage aimed to discover new territories in the southern hemisphere, and Ellis's illustrations serve as invaluable records of the exotic flora, fauna, and cultures encountered during this groundbreaking expedition. In this particular illustration, Ellis masterfully depicts a large, colorful fish with an elongated fin, lying flat on a rocky surface. The fish's vibrant scales shimmer in various shades of blue, green, and purple, while its large, expressive eyes seem to gaze intently at the viewer. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns on the fish's body and the delicate rendering of its gills and fins. The setting of the illustration is a rocky, tropical shoreline, with the sun casting a warm, golden glow over the scene. The water around the fish is calm and clear, revealing a few smaller fish swimming nearby. The overall composition of the illustration is balanced and visually appealing, making it a fascinating glimpse into the natural world of the 18th century. William Ellis (1728-1785), also known as William Webb Ellis, was an accomplished artist who joined Cook's expedition as a draftsman and naturalist. His watercolor sketches, like Plate 103, offer a unique perspective on the discoveries made during this historic voyage. This illustration is not only a testament to Ellis's artistic talent but also a valuable historical document that continues to captivate and inspire viewers today.
