 Information

Printed by Benjamin Fawcett after drawings by A.F. Lydon. "British Fresh Water Fishes" is one of the most beloved books of the era and was reissued and reprinted up to 1900. This edition is the first, with 41 stunning fishes of folio size in pristine condition. Benjamin Fawcett was one of the greatest color printers of the 19th century. He pioneered a system of wood block engraving from multiple wood blocks that resulted in vivid finely colored works such as this marvelous book. This process was called chromoxylography (color wood engraving). Fawcett had an association of some 50 years with Francis Orpen Morris to produce many beautiful works on birds, including the highly successful "A History of British Birds".
