EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling fishmarket of Aberdeen, Scotland in the late 19th century. Published in 1898 as part of "From Our Own Country" a collection by Ken Welsh, this image encapsulates the essence of Scottish trade and commerce during that era. In this snapshot frozen in history, we are transported to a vibrant marketplace filled with energetic traders and merchants. The scene is alive with activity as fishermen proudly display their fresh catches while potential buyers negotiate prices. The aroma of saltwater lingers in the air, mingling with the sounds of haggling voices and seagulls overhead. The market itself is a testament to Aberdeen's rich fishing heritage. From humble stalls to grander structures, it showcases an array of seafood delicacies that were sought after not only locally but also beyond Scottish shores. This fishmarket served as a vital hub for both domestic consumption and international export. Through Ken Welsh's lens, we witness an important aspect of daily life from over a century ago – one that shaped communities and livelihoods. This photograph captures not just the physicality of the market but also its cultural significance within Aberdeen society. As we gaze upon this historical treasure today, we can't help but marvel at how much has changed since then while appreciating how certain traditions have endured throughout generations. It serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and modernization, some aspects remain timeless - like our love for good food sourced from local markets steeped
