EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "FISHING, 1886. Fishing in a puddle" takes us back to the late 19th century America, offering a glimpse into the daily life of rural fishermen. The image captures two men standing beside a small puddle with their fishing rods at the ready. Their worn-out clothing and humble surroundings suggest a life marked by poverty. The setting is an idyllic countryside with rolling hills in the background and a rustic log cabin nearby. It seems that these men have found solace in this simple act of fishing, even if it means casting their lines into nothing more than a mere puddle. There's an undeniable sense of humor emanating from this scene as well – perhaps they are making light of their circumstances or simply finding joy in the simplicity of their leisure activity. One can't help but smile at the sight of these hillbilly fishermen embracing nature's offerings despite its modest presentation. The sepia tones add depth and character to this American photograph from 1886, further emphasizing its historical significance. This print serves as a reminder that even during times of hardship, people find ways to connect with nature and find moments of respite amidst challenging circumstances.
