EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the fishing industry in Newfoundland during the 19th century. Taken from Jules Ferrario's renowned work, Le Costume Ancien et Moderne, this image showcases a bustling scene of daily life in the trade. The photograph depicts a picturesque coastal landscape with a ship anchored near the shore. Fishermen can be seen diligently working as they land their catch and begin netting, drying, and pressing oil from various fish species. The trawler is filled to the brim with hake while hooks are prepared for another round of fishing. In this snapshot of history, we witness the tireless efforts and resilience of these fishermen as they contribute to North America's thriving fishing industry. The importance of cod is evident through its prominent presence in this scene. The composition beautifully highlights not only human activity but also wildlife that coexists within this environment. Seagulls gracefully soar above, eagerly awaiting any opportunity to snatch up scraps left behind during gutting processes. Giulio Bramati's color lithography technique brings vibrancy and life to this historical moment frozen in time. As viewers gaze upon this remarkable piece, they are transported back centuries ago when English settlers first established themselves on American soil. This print serves as a testament to both our fascination with capturing everyday scenes and our appreciation for those who have dedicated their lives to sustaining industries vital for communities' survival.
