Originally illustrated for Fauna Japonica (1833–1850) by German naturalist Philipp Franz von Siebold, this detailed portrayal of Dactyloptena orientalis—commonly known as the flying gurnard—captures the graceful spread of its wing-like pectoral fins. With its striking colors and anatomical precision, this archival print has been carefully restored and color-corrected to honor the integrity of the original engraving.
Ideal for collectors of vintage ichthyology or those with a passion for marine aesthetics.
