EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time in the coastal town of Bordighera, Italy, circa 1880. The image shows a fisherman diligently repairing his fishing nets, showcasing the timeless tradition and skill involved in this essential task. The scene is filled with rich details that provide insight into the social conditions of the era, from the rugged landscape to the humble clothing worn by the fishermen.
Photographed by Alfred Noack, this print on double-weight paper from Alinari Archives in Florence beautifully preserves this slice of Italian life. The composition not only highlights the craftsmanship of net mending but also hints at themes of poverty and society that were prevalent during that period.
As we gaze upon this historical photograph, we are transported back to a time when fishing was not just a means of sustenance but also a way of life for many Europeans living along the Ligurian coast. The intricate process of repairing nets serves as a reminder of the hard work and dedication required to make a living from the sea.
Overall, this image is not just a snapshot frozen in time; it is a window into an entire world shaped by tradition, community, and resilience.
