EDITORS COMMENTS
On The Seine: A Timeless Scene of Fishing and Mythology This evocative illustration, titled "On The Seine," transports us back in time to a quiet moment along the banks of the iconic French river. The serene scene is populated by a line of determined fishermen, their rods poised in anticipation of a catch. The gentle curve of the river reflects the arched bridge in the background, its ancient stones bearing witness to the passage of time. The River Seine, a name derived from the Gaulish goddess Squana, is steeped in history and mythology. Squana, an ancient Celtic Gallo-Roman goddess, was believed to have offered herself as a sacrifice at the source of the river. The goddess's presence is a reminder of the deep connection between the people and the natural world, a bond that has endured throughout the centuries. This illustration, created circa 1914, is a testament to the enduring beauty and allure of the River Seine. The rich, vibrant colors and intricate details bring the scene to life, transporting us to a simpler time. This illustration was published in a magazine, likely in the February 1915 volume, and was created by the talented artist Bertram Mason Knight Eaton. Eaton's masterful use of line and color captures the essence of the scene, making it a cherished piece of art and a window into the past.
