Gadus Lota - The Burbot

by Marcus Elieser Bloch

Revisit the charm of the freshwater cod through this restored version of Gadus Lota (The Burbot) by Marcus Elieser Bloch from his seminal work Oeconomische Naturgeschichte der Fische Deutschlands from the 18th century. The scientific name of the fish is clearly visible in the illustration, along with German (Die Quappe), French (La Lote), and English (The Burbot). The print depicts the unique mottled skin of the fish with its brown and golden colors, as well as its unique dorsal and anal fins, rounded tail, and single chin barbel.

This rare old fish print would make an excellent addition to your rustic cabin, study room, or natural history collection.
