EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Plate II, a study for Actinologia Britannica: A History of the British Sea Anemones and Corals, created by Philip Henry Gosse between 1858 and 1860. The artwork, rendered in graphite, watercolor, and gouache on paper, is housed at the Horniman Museum in London. Gosse's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this stunning depiction of marine life. The composition features an array of vibrant sea anemones and delicate corals set against a backdrop that mimics the underwater environment they inhabit. Each element is intricately portrayed with precision and accuracy. Actinologia Britannica was published in 1860 as a comprehensive exploration of British sea anemones. This particular plate serves as a testament to Gosse's dedication to scientific illustration during the Victorian era. His work not only captured the beauty of these creatures but also contributed valuable knowledge about their anatomy and behavior.
