EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fishing Notes at St Helena" takes us back to the late 19th century, capturing a moment of angling adventure on the island of St Helena. The engraving, created by William Ralston in 1877, showcases a scene filled with anticipation and triumph. In this picturesque setting, we see fishermen perched upon ladders that extend from the rocky cliffs down to the fishing ground below. With their lines cast into the crystal-clear waters, they patiently await their catch. The wharf nearby serves as a hub of activity, where fellow anglers gather to exchange stories and tips. The image captures not only the physical act of fishing but also the joy it brings. We can almost feel the excitement building as one fisherman proudly displays his freshly caught supper for all to admire. It is evident that fishing was not just a means for sustenance but also an enjoyable pastime shared among friends and family. St Helena's natural beauty shines through in this enchanting scene - its rugged coastline contrasting with the calmness of the sea. This print transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both nature's bounty and humanity's connection with it. Bridgeman Images has once again preserved history through this remarkable piece from their Fine Art Finder collection. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of our timeless fascination with fishing and how it continues to captivate our hearts even today.
