Salmo Salar Mas - The Male-Salmon

by Marcus Elieser Bloch

Add an elegant touch to your home by decorating it with this exceptional reproduction of Marcus Elieser Bloch’s Salmo Salar Mas (The Male Atlantic Salmon). Depicted in the latter half of the 18th century, this classic illustration features the remarkable characteristics of a fully grown breeding male, particularly his hooked lower jaw (kype), dark spots on his grayish-silver brown body, and blue shaded fins.

In the top right of this illustration, there are elegant inscriptions written in four different classical languages that showcase the enthusiasm of the time period for classifying all living things scientifically. Regardless of whether it is used as a key component of research, a library, or a lakeside cabin, this work connects scientific exactness with timeless artistry.
