EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print captures the essence of fishing for cod in Newfoundland during the 19th century. The image showcases a scene of hardworking French fishermen laying lines to catch these prized fish. With their boats rowed by skilled men, adorned with hats and equipped with nets, they navigate the vast ocean in search of their bounty. The historical significance of this artwork is evident as it provides a glimpse into the social and economic aspects of fishing in Canada's maritime province. It depicts an era when fishing was not only a means of livelihood but also an integral part of the region's culture and identity. The print beautifully portrays the rugged beauty of Newfoundland's coastline, with its rocky shores and choppy waters. The presence of multiple boats emphasizes the collective effort required to sustain this vital industry. As we admire this piece, we are reminded that fishing has always been deeply intertwined with nature. The abundance of wildlife animals swimming beneath those waves serves as a testament to both the resilience and vulnerability of our natural world. This stunning artwork transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the dedication and skill required for successful cod fishing while highlighting its importance within Canadian history.
