EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Holy Island in the late 19th century. The artist, M Aunty, beautifully captures the essence of this picturesque location in England. The image is sourced from the renowned book "Pictorial England and Wales" published by Cassell and Company Ltd. In this scene, we see a group of fishermen rowing their boats on the tranquil North Sea waters surrounding Holy Island. The men skillfully navigate their rowing boats while carrying barrels, possibly filled with freshly caught fish or other supplies for their trade. Nearby, a young boy watches intently as he learns from these experienced seafarers. The landscape is breathtakingly scenic, with Holy Island's historic buildings visible in the distance against a backdrop of rolling hills. This remote island has always held great significance due to its religious history dating back to medieval times when it was home to Lindisfarne Priory. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia and timelessness to the photograph. It transports us back to an era where life was simpler yet filled with hard work and dedication. This vintage print serves as a window into the past, allowing us to appreciate both the natural beauty of Holy Island and the industrious spirit of its people. It reminds us of our connection to history and how landscapes can shape communities over time.
