Hand drawn South Pacific fishes by Frank Edward Clarke (1899). Frank was a New Zealand ichthyologist and scientific illustrator who discovered many new species of fishes. Sir James Hector acclaimed that “his knowledge of fish was minute and accurate, and it would be difficult to exaggerate the beauty and scientific fidelity of his drawings. A special value attached to these drawings inasmuch as some represented rare and others absolutely unique specimens which had come under Mr. Clarke's observation".
