EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Month of May: Fly Fishing" takes us back to the Victorian era, immersing us in a tranquil scene by the river bank. The image beautifully captures a female angler engrossed in her favorite pastime, showcasing the artistry and elegance of fly fishing. With her rod poised gracefully above the water, she patiently waits for that perfect moment to cast her line. The delicate hook glistens under the warm sunlight as it dances on the surface of the river. Surrounded by lush greenery and blooming flowers, this idyllic setting epitomizes nature's serenity. Originally published in 1898 as part of an almanac featuring twelve sports, this color lithograph perfectly encapsulates Rudyard Kipling's words that accompany it. It transports us to a time when outdoor pursuits were cherished and celebrated as hobbies rather than mere distractions from our busy lives. As we admire this exquisite piece from William Nicholson's collection, we are reminded of how timeless and enduring these traditional activities can be. Fly fishing continues to captivate enthusiasts worldwide with its blend of skill, patience, and connection with nature. Through this photograph print captured by Desmond Banks and made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we are invited to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical significance behind such artwork. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our modern world filled with technology-driven entertainment options; there is still immense value in embracing age-old
