EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Fishing, a Rise" takes us back to the 19th century with its charming depiction of a fishing scene. The artwork is part of a private collection and was created by an English School artist during this era. The illustration originally appeared in The Comic Annual by Thomas Hood in 1835, showcasing the humorous side of fishing. With incredible attention to detail, the engraver captures the essence of this recreational activity while infusing it with comedic elements. In the foreground, we see a fisherman holding his fishing rod high above his head as he tries to catch a flying fish that seems determined to escape. This unexpected twist adds an element of surprise and amusement to the composition. The artist's skillful use of shading and line work brings depth and texture to both the figures and their surroundings. Every stroke contributes to creating an engaging visual narrative that transports viewers into this whimsical world. "Fishing, a Rise" is not only an exquisite example of 19th-century engraving but also serves as a reminder that humor can be found even in everyday activities like fishing. It invites us to appreciate both artistry and comedy simultaneously while celebrating nature's wonders. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to enjoy this delightful artwork from centuries past, capturing our imagination with its timeless charm.
