EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from 1858 in Worthing, a charming seaside town on the west coast of Sussex. The image shows rowing boats setting out to sea, manned by fishermen embarking on their daily fishing expeditions. The tranquility of the calm waters and the picturesque coastline provide a serene backdrop for this historic moment.
The rowing boats, with their sturdy oars slicing through the water, symbolize both hard work and adventure as they head towards the open sea. The fishermen's determination is evident as they navigate their way through the waves in search of a bountiful catch.
The year 1858 places us firmly in the Victorian era, a time when Worthing was beginning to establish itself as a popular destination for holidaymakers seeking respite by the sea. This print offers us a glimpse into life at that time, showcasing not only the beauty of Worthing's coastal landscape but also highlighting the importance of fishing as an essential livelihood for many residents.
As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are transported back to an era where rowing boats were not just vessels for transportation but symbols of resilience and perseverance against nature's unpredictable forces. It serves as a reminder of Worthing's rich maritime history and its enduring connection to the sea.
