EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Old Fish House in Kennebunk Port, Maine, between 1900 and 1906. The image, taken during the early 20th century, presents a tranquil scene of the waterfront with its wooden hut and fishing boats. The Old Fish House, a small, weathered building, stands proudly on the rocky shoreline, its aged timbers bearing the marks of time and the elements. The boats moored along the water's edge, their sails furled, add to the serene atmosphere. The fishing industry was a significant part of the local economy in Kennebunkport during this period, and the Old Fish House would have been a bustling hub of activity. The photograph, likely taken using a dry plate or glass negative process, showcases the rich textures and tones of the scene. The contrast between the dark, rough wooden hut and the lighter, reflective water creates a striking visual effect. The Old Fish House, now a cherished piece of local history, is a testament to the area's maritime heritage. Its enduring charm continues to draw visitors to Kennebunkport, Maine, and serves as a reminder of the region's past as a thriving fishing community. This 8 x 10 inch photograph, part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to appreciate the simple beauty of a bygone era.
