EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Walton and Cottons Fishing House, Beresford Dale, 1880s" transports viewers to the serene countryside of Derbyshire, England in the late 19th century. Created by renowned photographer Peter Henry Emerson, this work is part of his album "The Compleat Angler or The Contemplative Man's Recreation, Volume II" (1888), specifically plate xlviii. The image showcases a charming cabin nestled amidst a picturesque landscape. Situated near the mouth of River Dove in Beresford Dale, this fishing house holds historical significance as it pays homage to Izaak Walton and Charles Cotton - two prominent figures in angling literature. Dr. Peter Henry Emerson masterfully captures the essence of nature with his photogravure technique. The composition highlights the harmonious coexistence between man-made structures and their natural surroundings. Tall trees envelop the scene while lush vegetation adorns both sides of the riverbank. The woodlands exude tranquility as sunlight filters through branches onto the calm waters below. Emerson's attention to detail brings out every texture and tone within this monochromatic masterpiece. This limited edition print is numbered 109 out of 250 copies available worldwide. Displayed at an esteemed art institute such as Chicago's Art Institute Gallery adds further prestige to this heritage artwork. With its timeless beauty and evocative portrayal of English countryside charm, "Walton and Cottons Fishing House" serves as a testament to both Emerson's artistic prowess and Britain's rich cultural heritage.
