EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in Newfoundland's history - the cod fishery. Dating back to the early 1900s, this image showcases the traditional practice of cutting open and drying cod fish, a vital industry for the region at that time.
The series of images provides a glimpse into the hard work and dedication required in this historical trade. The fishermen meticulously cut open each fish before carefully laying them out to dry, showcasing both skill and precision in their craft.
As we reflect on this snapshot from the past, we are reminded of the importance of industries like these in shaping communities and economies. The dried cod depicted in this print would have been essential for sustenance and commerce during this era, highlighting its significance within Newfoundland's cultural heritage.
Mary Evans Picture Library has beautifully captured not just a scene but a piece of history with this photograph. It serves as a reminder of our connection to the past and how traditions such as these have helped shape our present-day society.
Overall, this print is not just about fish or industry; it is about resilience, tradition, and community - elements that continue to define Newfoundland's identity today.
