EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the preparation of cod at the bay of Cap Rouge. The image depicts the meticulous process of cleaning the fish and collecting livers to extract oil from their strike, followed by salting in a cabin on stilts. Created by Louis Lebreton, this drawing was intended to illustrate A. de Gobineau's voyage to Newfoundland in 1860. The engraving, featured in "Le tour du monde" edited by Edouard Charton in 1863, showcases the dedication and labor involved in manufacturing technology during that era. It offers us a glimpse into the lives of Canadian fishmongers as they diligently work on preparing cod for consumption. The scene is set against the backdrop of Canada's picturesque landscape, with a boat anchored nearby and huts dotting the shoreline. This portrayal highlights not only the importance of fishing as an industry but also its connection to nature and wildlife. Leonard de Selva has beautifully captured this historical moment through his lens, preserving it for generations to come. As we admire this print today, we are reminded of both our rich cultural heritage and how far we have come technologically since then.
