EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, titled "Fisherfolk on the Shore, Salting the Catch, Folkestone" we are transported back in time to witness a scene of hard work and tradition. The image captures a group of fisherfolk diligently salting their catch along the picturesque shores of Folkestone. The composition is beautifully framed by a broom lobster pot windmill in the background, adding an element of rustic charm to the overall ambiance. The windmill stands tall against the sky, serving as a silent witness to generations of fishermen who have relied on its presence for guidance and inspiration. Every detail within this print tells a story - from the weathered faces of these dedicated individuals to their worn-out fishing gear scattered across the shore. Their hands move with practiced precision as they carefully salt each fish, preserving it for future consumption or trade. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a poignant reminder of our connection to nature's bounty and our reliance on traditional methods passed down through generations. It evokes feelings of nostalgia and appreciation for those who have dedicated their lives to harvesting from the sea. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image captured by James Baker Pyne (1800-70), we can't help but be drawn into its timeless beauty. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation that transports us back in time while reminding us of our shared human experience throughout history.
