Buy the Fishes of New Zealand poster:
Reminiscent of the iconic fish 'n' chip shop poster, this poster from Te Papa Press features a selection of 222 fishes from the landmark 4-volume publication The Fishes of New Zealand. Designed to appeal to fishing enthusiasts and lovers of Kiwiana, the poster includes favourites such as the sunfish and sharks, commercial species such as orange roughy and snapper, the ubiquitous spotty, as well as the blobfish, bearded angler and many more curious and unusual fishes that call New Zealand’s marine environments home.
New Zealand’s unique marine environments are home to more than 1200 known species of fishes. From the familiar to the astonishing, this selection shows their wonderful diversity.
From the book The Fishes of New Zealand, edited by Clive D Roberts, Andrew L Stewart and Carl D Struthers, published by Te Papa Press.
This magnificent illustration from the 1900s, entitled Native Birds of New Zealand by William Shaw Diedrich Schmidt, has been lovingly reproduced by Te Papa Press to accompany Buller’s Birds of New Zealand: The Complete Work of JG Keulemans.
Based on collections featured in the book ‘Tiny Statements: A Social History of Aotearoa New Zealand in Badges’, this beautiful, decorative poster of a century’s worth of badge designs.
An insider’s guide to the natural treasures of New Zealand’s national museum.
