EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Brook Trout Fishing - An Anxious Moment, 1862" takes us back to a time when settlers in the United States relied on their hunting and fishing skills for survival. The image, a colour lithograph created by Currier and Ives, depicts an intense scene along a serene river. In this snapshot of history, we see a skilled fisherman poised with his spear, waiting patiently for the perfect moment to strike. His eyes are fixed on the water's surface as he anticipates the movement of his prey beneath. The tension in his body is palpable; every muscle is ready to spring into action. The setting itself exudes tranquility, with lush greenery framing the crystal-clear waters. It serves as a stark contrast to the hunter's focused determination. This juxtaposition highlights both man's connection with nature and his primal instinct for survival. As we gaze upon this artwork from our private collection, we can't help but be drawn into its narrative. We find ourselves holding our breath alongside the fisherman, sharing in his anticipation and anxiety during this decisive moment. This photograph not only captures an important aspect of American history but also reminds us of humanity's timeless relationship with nature – one that requires patience, skill, and respect.
