"Chaetodon visch" is a black and white woodcut print created by Dutch artist Henri Verstijnen between 1892 and 1931. The print depicts a detailed rendering of a fish swimming amongst aquatic foliage. The fish is shown in profile, with its scales and fins rendered in meticulous detail using fine lines and hatching. The background is a dark, textured surface that suggests the murky depths of the ocean. Verstijnen was a renowned printmaker and illustrator who often depicted marine life in his works. His masterful use of woodcut technique creates a sense of realism and depth in this piece.
