This book illustrates the bewildering array of sizes, shapes and colours of fish and their astonishing beauty that caught the imagination of artists, explorers and scientists of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. These lavishly illustrated fish plates which range from the Goldfish to the extraordinary Trunk-fish are still important both for the scientific study of fish and as priceless collectors items.
