EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dated 1879, showcases three distinctive fish species: Azurine, Dobule, and the Common Rudd. The Azurine and Dobule, with their vibrant colors and intriguing shapes, are non-existent species, a product of artistic license or perhaps a mistake in taxonomy during the Victorian era. Their names, Azurine and Dobule, suggest an air of mystery and allure, adding to their intrigue. The Common Rudd, however, is a real species, scientifically known as Scardinius erythropthalmus, or the Red-Eye. This fish, native to Europe and Asia, is easily recognizable by its distinctive red eyes and golden scales. In the late 1800s, the Common Rudd was a popular subject for natural history enthusiasts and artists, who appreciated its beauty and the role it played in aquatic ecosystems. The photograph itself is a testament to the fascination with the natural world during the Victorian era. The crisp details and rich colors showcase the fish in their natural habitats, providing a glimpse into the past and offering a window into the world of fish species both real and imagined. The photograph's age, over a century old, adds to its historical significance, making it a valuable addition to any collection of natural history or fish enthusiasts.
