LS Plate 113 from the John Reeves Collection: A Vibrant Depiction of a Brown Damsel Fish from Canton, China This stunning illustration, LS Plate 113, is a captivating example from the extensive collection of Chinese natural history drawings amassed by John Reeves during his travels to Canton, China in the 19th century. Reeves, a dedicated tea inspector, had a profound fascination with the natural world and meticulously documented his observations through detailed drawings. The illustration showcases a Brown Damsel Fish (Chaetodon trifascialis), a small, vibrant bony fish belonging to the Pomacentridae family, order Perciformes, and class Actinopterygii. This Damselfish, native to the Indo-Pacific region, is characterized by its distinctive coloration, featuring three horizontal stripes along its body. The intricately rendered details in this illustration highlight the fish's elongated dorsal and anal fins, which are typical of ray-finned fishes. The artist's skillful use of shading and contrast adds depth and dimension to the illustration, making the Damsel Fish appear lifelike and dynamic. John Reeves' collection, now housed in the Natural History Museum in London, offers a unique glimpse into the natural history of Asia during the 19th century. LS Plate 113, with its captivating representation of the Brown Damsel Fish, is a testament to Reeves' dedication to documenting the natural world and the artistic talent of the Chinese illustrators he employed during his time in Canton.
