EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Cot Fishing, Kilkenny, Ireland" takes us back to the 19th century. The image showcases a serene scene of anglers engaged in their favorite pastime along the picturesque shores of Kilkenny. The print captures the essence of traditional Irish cot fishing, a method that has been practiced for generations. The anglers are seen skillfully maneuvering their small boats known as cots, which were specifically designed for this type of fishing. With focused determination and expert precision, they cast their lines into the tranquil waters in search of a bountiful catch. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this engraving. From the ripples on the water's surface to the intricate depiction of each angler's attire and equipment, it transports us back in time to witness this timeless tradition firsthand. Originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News on June 28th, 1884, this print offers a glimpse into both history and artistry. It serves as a testament to Ireland's rich cultural heritage and its deep connection with nature. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece from their Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection. As we admire this beautiful artwork today, we can't help but appreciate how it encapsulates not only the beauty of Cot Fishing in Kilkenny but also our enduring fascination with angling as an age-old pursuit enjoyed by many around the world.
