EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, a Bermeo fisherman diligently adjusts the mooring line of his traditional wooden boat in the picturesque harbor of Bermeo, located in the Basque Country of Northern Spain. The year is 1990, and the scene transports us back to a simpler time when the livelihoods of the community were deeply intertwined with the sea. Bermeo, a charming coastal town nestled in the heart of the Biscay Bay, has a rich maritime history and is renowned for its thriving fishing industry. This image captures the essence of the town's vibrant harbor, where colorful fishing boats, both large trawlers and smaller wooden vessels, line the harborside. The fisherman's focused expression and the intricate ropes and pulleys used to secure his boat to the mooring demonstrate the skill and dedication required to navigate the often unforgiving waters of the Bay of Biscay. The photograph, taken by the talented British photographer Philip Dunn, offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Bermeo fishing community during the 1990s. The town's bustling harbor, with its unique blend of tradition and modernity, continues to be a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the people who call it home. This image is an enduring reminder of the deep connection between the people of Bermeo and the sea, a connection that has shaped their identity for generations.
