Red Lobster
Red Lobster reproduces a hand-coloured natural history study of the European lobster rendered with the exacting detail and vivid chromatic intensity characteristic of 18th and 19th-century zoological illustration. Every segment of the carapace, each articulated claw and feathered antennae, is recorded with the care of a draughtsman whose purpose was scientific fidelity. The result is both a document of historical natural science and a composition of considerable graphic power — the lobster's deep scarlet set against a clean, neutral ground.
Printed as an archival fine art print, the richness of the hand-coloured original is faithfully captured, with fine art paper's matte surface rendering every precise line and graduated tone with clarity and depth.
