EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "FISHING: LOBSTERMAN, 1875" we are transported back in time to the late 19th century on the rugged coast of Maine. The image showcases a hardworking lobsterman meticulously inspecting one of his pots, providing us with a glimpse into the maritime fishing practices of that era. The wood engraving, created in 1875, beautifully captures the essence of this American lobsterman's daily routine. With intense focus and expertise, he carefully examines the pot for any signs of success or disappointment. The intricately detailed lines etched onto the paper bring out every nuance and texture of both man and machine. Surrounded by an atmosphere steeped in history and tradition, we can almost feel the salty breeze as it whips through our hair while observing this scene unfold. A rowboat or dinghy sits nearby, serving as transportation to navigate these treacherous waters. This print is not just a mere depiction; it serves as a window into an important aspect of Maine's cultural heritage – lobster fishing. It reminds us that behind every succulent seafood dish enjoyed today lies centuries-old techniques passed down from generation to generation. As we admire this remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand's collection, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also acknowledge the dedication and resilience embodied by those who have made their living off North America's bountiful seas throughout history.
