EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative photograph captures the daily life of fishermen Rogers, Craigie, Craigie, and Jed Palmer at work on the sandy beach of Southwold, Suffolk in September 1907. Dressed in their traditional fishing attire, the men are seen posing with their boats, ready to set out to sea. The Edwardian era seaside scene exudes a sense of industry and determination as the men prepare for another day of hard work on the coast of East Anglia. The fishermen, with their moustaches and caps, are a stark contrast to the serene backdrop of the calm sea and sandy beach. One man is seen adjusting the sails on his boat, while another smokes a pipe, taking a moment's rest before the day's labor begins. The hats and caps worn by the fishermen are a testament to the importance of protecting oneself from the harsh elements of the sea. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the fishing industry was a vital part of the coastal communities in Suffolk and beyond. The boats, with their sails raised, are a reminder of the importance of the sea and the role it played in the lives of those who lived and worked along its shores. The image is a beautiful representation of the connection between man and nature, and the resilience and dedication required to make a living from the sea."
