EDITORS COMMENTS
A Fishy Steed! - A Black Sea-Bass - weight 363 pounds, 1901. This print captures a truly extraordinary sight from the early 20th century. In the frame stands a young British boy, barefoot on a shingle beach, dressed in his everyday clothes with an oversized hat perched atop his head. But what makes this image truly remarkable is what he holds onto – reins attached to an enormous Black Sea-Bass! Weighing an astonishing 363 pounds, this majestic creature becomes an unexpected steed for the adventurous youngster. With a wide smile on his face and seated confidently upon the fish's back, he embodies both awe and excitement at this peculiar encounter. The photograph was featured in 'The Harmsworth Magazine' of February-July 1901, published by Harmsworth Bros in London. The creator remains unknown but their ability to capture such an unusual moment speaks volumes about their skill behind the lens. This monochrome portrait not only showcases aquatic life but also offers us a glimpse into childhood imagination and boundless curiosity. It reminds us that even in our daily lives, we can stumble upon something bizarre yet beautiful if we keep our eyes open to all possibilities. As we admire this quirky scene frozen in time over a century ago, let it serve as a reminder to embrace the unexpected wonders that await us each day.
