EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era at St. Ives Harbour and Godrevy Lighthouse, beautifully depicted in oil on board by Alfred Wallis. The painting, titled 'This is Sain Fishery That Used to Be, ' transports us back in time to witness the bustling activity of boats and fishermen engaged in their trade. The scene unfolds from a bird's eye perspective, revealing an intricate network of boats navigating the calm waters. A tugboat stands out amidst the fleet, symbolizing the strength and resilience required for this demanding profession. The lighthouse proudly stands tall, its beacon guiding these seafarers safely home. Wallis skillfully captures both the tranquility and vibrancy of this coastal setting. The colors are richly layered, evoking a sense of nostalgia that resonates with viewers today. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we can almost hear seagulls calling overhead and feel the salty breeze against our skin. This painting not only immortalizes a specific moment in history but also pays homage to an industry that has shaped generations along these shores. It serves as a reminder of our deep connection to nature's abundance and our reliance on its resources. Displayed at the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden in St. Ives, UK, this artwork invites us to reflect on our relationship with both land and sea – reminding us that while times may change, some traditions endure.
