More about this artwork

In the painting titled "The Eastern or Banded Pickerel, Lucius reticulatus" (1898) by John L. Petrie, viewers are presented with a remarkable representation of the banded pickerel, a freshwater fish native to North America. Petrie’s work meticulously captures the elongated body of the pickerel, marked vividly with an intricate pattern of dark bands and speckles that contrast sharply against its light, silvery belly. The fish’s sharp, pointed snout and fins are rendered with great attention to detail, highlighting characteristic red-orange accents on the pelvic and anal fins.The background of the painting features a soft, unassuming gradient of blue-grey, suggesting the calm, aquatic environment of the pickerel. This subtle backdrop serves to focus the viewer's attention on the exquisite details and natural beauty of the fish.Petrie’s choice of colors, delicate brushwork, and compositional placement within the canvas all contribute to a sense of motion and life, implying the graceful, swift movements of the pickerel through water.
