EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Models of Fishing Boats and Fishing Gear in the International Fisheries Exhibition" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by George Henry Andrews, this illustration was featured in The Illustrated London News on June 23rd, 1883. The image showcases an array of meticulously crafted models representing various fishing boats and fishing gear. These models were contributed to the International Fisheries Exhibition, held in London during that time. Among them are Dutch river fishing boats, Norwegian yachts and fishing vessels, North Sea bomboats, and even a Blankenberghe fishing boat. The exhibition aimed to highlight the advancements made in the world of fishing and its importance as an industry. It also served as a platform for sharing knowledge about different types of equipment used for commercial fishing such as drift nets, trawl beams, and doggers. Notably present is HRH The Prince of Wales' pink (a type of sailing vessel), emphasizing royal interest in maritime affairs. This engraving offers a glimpse into the diverse range of boats utilized by fishermen from around the world. With intricate details captured through Andrews' skilled handiwork, this print transports us back to an era when exhibitions like these played a vital role in showcasing technological progress within specific industries. It serves as both a historical record and testament to human ingenuity when it comes to harnessing resources from our oceans.
