EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the string jellyfish, Apolemia uvaria (Stephanomia uvaria, Stefanomia grappolo). Created in the 19th century by Corsi, a skilled engraver, this handcoloured copperplate stipple engraving is a true masterpiece. The illustration was drawn by Jean Gabriel Pretre and directed by Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin, renowned for his botanical illustrations. The delicate and intricate details of the jellyfish are brought to life through Corsi's artistry. The vibrant colors used in the handcolouring process enhance its ethereal presence. This print was published as part of Antoine Laurent de Jussieu's Dizionario delle Scienze Naturali (Dictionary of Natural Science) in Florence, Italy in 1837. The string jellyfish is depicted here as a colony with multiple polyps or zooids connected together by long strings. Each individual zooid contributes to creating a stunning visual spectacle that resembles an otherworldly creature floating gracefully underwater. Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin's direction ensures scientific accuracy while capturing the essence and allure of this marine wonder. His attention to detail allows viewers to appreciate both its scientific significance and aesthetic appeal. This remarkable artwork serves as a testament to the rich history of natural history illustrations and highlights Turpin's contribution as one of France's greatest botanical illustrators during the 19th century. It continues to captivate audiences with its timeless charm and remains an invaluable piece within Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder.
