EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fishing - with its consequences" takes us back to the year 1827, when it was engraved by G. Hunt and published in London by Thomas McClean. The hand-coloured aquatint captures a humorous scene that reflects on the consequences of fishing. Within this charming interior setting, we find ourselves observing a group of men engaged in their domestic activities around a fireplace. However, instead of focusing on their daily chores or conversations, they are captivated by the art of fishing. The image cleverly portrays the consequences that arise from indulging in this beloved pastime. The clergyman depicted here is not exempt from falling into temptation as he too becomes engrossed in the allure of fishing. This playful cartoon-like illustration showcases the universal appeal and impact that this recreational activity has had throughout history. The attention to detail and vibrant colors used in this print bring life to each character's expression and highlight their shared enthusiasm for angling. As we gaze upon this artwork at The Geffrye Museum of Home in London, UK, we can't help but appreciate how it encapsulates both humor and insight into human nature. This delightful piece serves as a reminder that even within our everyday lives, there are moments where we succumb to our passions and experience unexpected consequences – all while gathered around the warmth of a crackling fire.
