EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the traditional sturgeon fishing scene in Russia, taken in the early 20th century. The image transports us back in time to a historical moment when the art of sturgeon fishing was an essential part of the rural way of life in Russia, particularly in the Astrakhan region. The photograph shows several fishermen standing on the icy shores of a river, their faces etched with determination and focus as they prepare to catch the elusive sturgeon. The men are dressed in heavy coats and fur hats, shielding themselves from the cold and wind. In their hands, they hold long poles with large nets attached, ready to ensnare the sturgeons as they swim upstream to spawn. The sturgeon, a prehistoric fish species, is an iconic symbol of the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea basin. These massive fish can grow up to 7 meters long and weigh over 600 kg. The fishermen in the photograph are likely targeting the Beluga sturgeon, the largest of all sturgeon species, which is also the primary source of the famous Astrakhan caviar. The process of catching the sturgeon was a labor-intensive and time-consuming task. Once caught, the fish were carefully brought to the shore, where they were gutted and the prized caviar was extracted. The roe was then carefully salted and packed in jars to be sold or consumed. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of sturgeon fishing in Russia and the significance of the industry to the local communities. It also highlights the traditional methods used to catch the sturgeon, which have now been largely replaced by more industrialized and commercialized fishing practices. Today, sturgeon populations are under threat due to overfishing and habitat destruction, making the preservation of historical records like this photograph all the more important.
