EDITORS COMMENTS
En route pour la pêche, or Setting Out to Fish, is a captivating oil on canvas masterpiece by renowned artist John Singer Sargent. This stunning print captures a serene coastal scene in 1878, showcasing the timeless beauty of nature and human connection. In this artwork, we see a group of women embarking on their fishing expedition along the beach. The mothers are accompanied by their children, creating an atmosphere of familial unity and shared adventure. As they traverse the low tide towards the shimmering sea, their baskets ready for bountiful catches, anticipation fills the air. The composition is enhanced by the presence of a lighthouse in the distance, standing tall as a guiding beacon amidst vast stretches of sand and water. Sargent's meticulous brushstrokes bring life to every detail - from the ripples in the ocean to each grain of sand beneath their feet.
