Spotted Dragonet, Montagu’s Sucker, Liparis, Thicklip Grey Mullet - Fish Prints
Located in Langweer, NL
Spotted Dragonet, Montagu’s Sucker, Liparis, and Thicklip Grey Mullet - Stunning Scandinavian Fish Lithograph
This remarkable 19th-century lithograph from *Skandinaviens Fiskar* presents an impressive array of Scandinavian fish species, each meticulously rendered with vibrant hand coloring and intricate detailing. Created by Wilhelm von Wright, Thorman, Malm, and C. Erdmann, and published by P. A. Norstedt & Söners Förlag in Stockholm, this print is a testament to the scientific accuracy and artistic mastery that define this iconic natural history series.
At the top left, the Spotted Dragonet (Callionymus maculatus) displays its graceful and elaborate fins, adorned with striking yellow and black patterns that resemble a delicate tapestry. The intricate detailing of the pectoral and dorsal fins showcases Wright’s dedication to both beauty and precision. Known for its colorful display and unique shape, the Spotted Dragonet inhabits sandy or muddy bottoms in shallow coastal waters.
To the right, a group of Montagu’s Suckers (Cyclogaster montagui) are depicted, notable for their small size and rounded bodies with subtle mottled patterns. These bottom-dwelling fish use their ventral sucker to adhere to rocks and submerged objects, making them well-suited for life in intertidal zones and shallow waters. The soft shading and earthy tones give them a lifelike appearance, emphasizing their adaptability to the rugged coastal environment.
The larger fish depicted with bold markings are Liparis (Cyclopteridae), with their stout, rounded bodies and vivid dark patterns. These fish are known for their unique suction disc, which allows them to cling to stones and rocky surfaces. The contrast between their dark, mottled bodies and bright orange highlights on the fins reflects their distinctive appearance.
At the bottom of the plate lies the majestic Thicklip Grey Mullet (Mugil chelo), depicted with a silvery sheen and streamlined body that signifies its fast, agile swimming nature. The fine scaling and reflective quality of its body are captured with remarkable realism, emphasizing the mullet’s sleek and powerful presence. Often found in coastal estuaries and shallow bays, the Thicklip Grey Mullet is valued for both its athletic form and its role as a popular food fish...

Scandinavian Asp and Bleak - Exquisite 19th-Century Lithograph
Located in Langweer, NL
Scandinavian Asp and Bleak - Exquisite 19th-Century Lithograph, 1895
This stunning lithograph from *Skandinaviens Fiskar* beautifully illustrates three freshwater fish species native to Scandinavia: the Asp (Aspius rapax) and the Bleak (Alburnus lucidus). Created by the talented artist Wilhelm von Wright and published by P. A. Norstedt & Söners Förlag in Stockholm, this plate masterfully combines scientific precision with artistic elegance.
The uppermost fish is the Bleak (Alburnus lucidus), characterized by its slender, streamlined body and shimmering silver scales. Known for its agile swimming and vibrant appearance, the Bleak is commonly found in rivers and lakes throughout northern Europe.
The central and lower fish are the Asp (Aspius rapax), displaying a more robust, muscular build with a distinct silvery-gray hue. The artist's meticulous attention to detail highlights the Asp's powerful fins and sleek body, showcasing its predatory nature. Asp are known for their speed and strength, often inhabiting fast-flowing waters and open lakes.
This hand-colored lithograph reflects the masterful craftsmanship of von Wright, who captured the essence of these Scandinavian fish with remarkable accuracy and aesthetic appeal. The subtle hand coloring brings the illustration to life, emphasizing the fish's natural hues and delicate textures.
Condition: The print remains in very good condition, with vibrant colors and sharp detailing. It would make a striking addition to any collection of natural history art or as a unique decorative piece in a study or living space.
Framing tips: Choose a wooden or metal frame in neutral tones like natural wood, black, or dark brown. Use a light cream or off-white mat, about 2-4 inches wide, and ensure it is acid-free for preservation. Opt for UV-protective, non-reflective glass or acrylic. Use acid-free backing boards and hinge mounting to secure the print without damage. Keep the frame sealed...

The Elegant Golden Spangled Hamburg Chicken - A 19th Century Poultry Lithograph
Located in Langweer, NL
The Elegant Golden Spangled Hamburg Chicken A Rare 19th Century Poultry Lithograph
This exquisite 19th century chromolithograph features a pair of Golden Spangled Hamburg chickens, an elegant and highly regarded breed known for its striking plumage, graceful build, and excellent egg laying capabilities. The print, titled Goudlaken Hamburgers, originates from Geïllustreerd Hoenderboek, an Illustrated Poultry Book published in 1888 by Elsevier. Compiled by Julius Volschau and adapted for Dutch readers by Dr. A. C. Oudemans Jzn., this book provided a comprehensive guide to poultry breeding, highlighting both practical and ornamental breeds that were highly valued in the 19th century.
Hamburg chickens are one of the oldest known domesticated poultry breeds, with records tracing them back to at least the 14th century. They were particularly popular in the Netherlands, Germany, and England due to their striking feather patterns and exceptional egg laying abilities. The Golden Spangled Hamburg, as depicted in this lithograph, is a particularly eye catching variety, featuring a rich golden brown base color accented with bold black spangling. The rooster stands tall with its flowing tail feathers and proud posture, while the hen, slightly smaller, displays the same intricate feather pattern in a more compact form.
This lithograph was created using chromolithography, a meticulous 19th century printing technique that allowed for vibrant and finely detailed illustrations. The artwork is based on an original drawing by Christian Förster, a skilled animal illustrator of the time. Chromolithographs were produced by layering multiple colors, each applied with a separate stone plate, ensuring depth and realism in the final print. The detailed feather patterning and the warm golden hues in this print highlight the craftsmanship involved in this artistic technique.
Condition Summary
The print remains in good condition, with well preserved colors and sharp details. Some minor age related toning and visible foxing spots are present along the edges, which is common in lithographs of this period. The paper remains stable, with slight signs of wear, making this an excellent collectible piece for antique poultry print...
