EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of the rich fishing tradition along the coastline of Spain and Portugal. Taken around the turn of the 20th century, the image shows a proud fisherman standing on the shore, his strong, sun-weathered hands cradling two bulging nets filled with freshly caught sardines. The fisherman's gaze is fixed on the horizon, perhaps contemplating the day's catch or the vast expanse of water before him. In one hand, he holds a lantern, its warm glow illuminating the scene and casting long shadows on the sand. The fisherman's simple yet sturdy attire, including a wide-brimmed hat and heavy boots, speaks to the rugged and demanding nature of his work. The rolling waves in the background add to the sense of the raw power and beauty of the natural world. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the deep connection between the people of this region and the sea, and the enduring tradition of small-scale, sustainable fishing practices. Part of the Boswell collection, this image offers a glimpse into the past and a glimpse into the lives of the fishermen who have worked these shores for generations.
