EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "At Wong-Dong, Cormorant Fishing" takes us back in time to the enchanting world of traditional Chinese fishing practices. The color lithograph, created by Thomas Hodgson Liddell in the late 19th century, beautifully captures the essence of this age-old technique. In this scene, we are transported to a serene riverbank where skilled fishermen stand poised on their boats alongside graceful cormorant birds. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life the rich cultural heritage of China. It is as if we can hear the gentle lapping of water against wooden vessels and feel the cool breeze rustling through ancient trees. Liddell's work was featured in his book "China its Marvel and Mystery" published in 1909. This image serves as a window into a bygone era when cormorant fishing was not only a means for sustenance but also an art form passed down through generations. As we gaze upon this vintage print, nostalgia washes over us, reminding us of the beauty found in traditions that have stood the test of time. It is a testament to human ingenuity and our deep connection with nature. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the skillful craftsmanship behind Liddell's lithography and the enduring allure of Asian culture. Whether one admires it for its historical significance or simply revels in its aesthetic charm, this artwork transports viewers on a visual journey through China's past -
