‘Shorthead Seahorse’ ~ Dracones et Equorum | Dragons & Horses

This palladium print reproduction showcases a delicate close-up of the Shorthead Seahorse (Hippocampus breviceps), a quiet marvel of marine life rendered in timeless monochrome. Native to southern Australian waters, this diminutive creature is captured in elegant detail ~ its curled tail, textured body, and subtle curvature evoking both vulnerability and strength.

Part of Liam Lynch’s Dracones et Equorum | Dragons & Horses series, the image draws a poetic parallel between the mythical and the real ~ celebrating the fantastical forms found within the natural world. The palladium process adds depth, warmth, and archival permanence, transforming the photograph into a fine art object with luminous tones and tactile presence.

A study in stillness and structure, Shorthead Seahorse invites close contemplation ~ a tribute to the overlooked beauty of the smallest ocean dwellers.
