This ceramic mug features the reproduction of a natural history plate dedicated to the bream (Cyprinus brama). The composition highlights the anatomical profile of the fish through a balanced color palette combining shades of gray, brown, yellow, and orange. The presence of historical captions in Latin and French emphasizes the documentary purpose of this ichthyological study.

The original drawing is taken from the famous work Ichthyologie, ou, Histoire naturelle, générale et particulière des poissons, created by Marcus Elieser Bloch between 1785 and 1797. This ambitious 18th-century scientific publishing project remains a major reference in Enlightenment natural history illustration.

Combining practical utility with aesthetic interest, this mug brings a touch of natural history to everyday life. It is designed for biology enthusiasts, collectors of antique imagery, and lovers of skillfully illustrated scientific motifs.
