EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored steel engraving depicts the Bloch's Pim, scientifically known as Pimelodus blochii, also referred to as the Tiger Pimelodus or Arekaima Catfish. The image is taken from Robert Schomburgk's seminal work, "Fishes of Guiana," published as part of Sir William Jardine's Naturalists Library: Ichthyology in Edinburgh in 1841. The illustration was produced by James Stewart and later engraved by W.H. Lizars. The Bloch's Pim is a large, freshwater catfish native to the Amazon and Orinoco river basins in South America. With its striking spotted pattern, this fish is a popular subject among ichthyologists and aquarists alike. The engraving captures the fish's intricate markings in stunning detail, highlighting the unique beauty of this fascinating species. The Bloch's Pim is an important component of the aquatic ecosystem in its native habitat, playing a significant role in maintaining the balance of the food chain. It is an omnivorous fish that feeds on a variety of organisms, including insects, crustaceans, and smaller fish. This beautiful engraving is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the illustrator and engraver, providing a glimpse into the natural world of the past. The intricate patterns and vibrant colors of the Bloch's Pim are brought to life in this stunning work of art, making it a must-have for any serious collector of natural history prints or anyone with an appreciation for the natural world.
