EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the enchanting coastal village of South Devon in the late 19th century. The scene captures a momentous day for the fishing community as they harvest an abundant catch of mackerel from the bay. In this snapshot of history, we witness a bustling scene filled with both male and female fishermen working together to bring in their precious haul. Pointing towards the sea with determination and expertise, these hardworking individuals showcase their deep connection to their maritime surroundings. The print beautifully portrays the traditional boats used for transportation on these waters, showcasing how vital water transport was for this thriving industry. Against a backdrop of rolling waves and rugged cliffs, it is evident that fishing was not only an occupation but also a way of life deeply intertwined with nature's elements. The Victorian era comes alive through this monochrome image as men clad in sturdy attire and women dressed modestly contribute equally to their shared livelihoods. Their resilience and unity are palpable as they navigate through challenging conditions while maintaining unwavering dedication to their craft. As we gaze upon this historical gem captured by an unknown creator, we are transported back in time to appreciate the rich heritage and indomitable spirit of those who made their living from the bountiful seas off England's coast.
