The Story Behind the Print
Denton's shad has a deep golden body and a strong forked tail, with small spots stepping back from the gill. The wide plate leaves generous space around this familiar Atlantic fish. This illustration appeared in a late-19th-century New York fisheries report.
Printed on a balanced landscape sheet in 8 × 6 or 12 × 9 inches. Choose Print Only or a ready-to-hang Slimwood Silver, Slimwood Gold, or Satin Black frame. Sizes describe the paper print; the outer frame adds to those dimensions.
Screen colors may vary slightly from the finished print.
