The image depicts a serene scene where skilled fishermen navigate their boats along the tranquil waters, accompanied by trained cormorant birds. The artistry of this print is truly remarkable, capturing the essence of Asian culture and its deep connection with nature.

It not only provides sustenance for local communities but also serves as a testament to mankind's ingenuity in utilizing natural resources. Through this digitally cleaned image from Bridgeman Images, we are transported into an era where simplicity prevailed over modern technology.
