These very beautiful chromolithographs are from the Annual Report of Fisheries of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania 1895 – 1905. The artist Sherman Foote Denton (1856 -1937) was only three years old when he began to paint and study fish. This early attraction developed in later years to him revolutionising the way fish were mounted and preserved to retain their original vibrant colours. As part of this process, he produced magnificent watercolour paintings of the fish he collected from all over the world.
