EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the bustling fishing industry of Newlyn, Cornwall in the 1920s. The image showcases Alfieri Snr. , a skilled mackerel fisherman, as he navigates his boat through the choppy waters of the sea. With determination etched on his face, he expertly maneuvers his vessel towards a Lowestoft Drifter that has just emptied its nets. The scene is filled with an air of anticipation and hard work as fishermen laboriously unload their catch onto the quay. The abundance of freshly caught fish glistens under the sunlight, serving as a testament to their dedication and skill. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into an era when fishing was not only an occupation but also a way of life for coastal communities like Newlyn. The significance of this photograph extends beyond mere documentation; it symbolizes sustenance and nourishment for countless families who relied on these brave individuals venturing out into treacherous waters to bring food to their tables. It serves as a reminder of how interconnected humans are with nature's bounties. As we admire this piece from Memory Lane Prints, let us appreciate not only its historical value but also recognize the tireless efforts made by those who dedicated themselves to providing sustenance for others.
