Plate 110 from the John Reeves Collection: A Stunning Nineteenth Century Illustration of Striped Longfin and Spiked Fin Fishes from the Waters of Canton, China This exquisite silver print, Plate 110 from the John Reeves Collection, showcases an intriguing assemblage of striped longfin and spiked fin fishes, captured from the waters of Canton, China during the nineteenth century. The illustration, created by the renowned English naturalist and artist, John Reeves, is a testament to the rich biodiversity of Asian waters during that era. John Reeves (1774-1856) was a prominent figure in the natural history world, known for his extensive work on the natural history of China. He served as the Superintendent of the Canton Factory, British East India Company, from 1812 to 1831, during which time he made numerous observations and collections of Chinese flora and fauna. His illustrations, which were produced using the silver-point technique, are renowned for their exceptional detail and accuracy. The illustration features a vibrant array of striped longfin fishes, with their distinctive, elongated dorsal fins, and spiked fin fishes, characterized by their sharp, spiked dorsal and pectoral fins. The red and yellow hues of the fishes contrast beautifully against the stark, white background, adding to the overall visual appeal of the print. This illustration not only provides a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of Asian waters during the nineteenth century but also serves as a testament to the remarkable work of John Reeves, a pioneering naturalist and artist of his time.
