EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured by an unknown photographer for the Illustrated London News in 1862, offers a glimpse into the daily life of Newhaven's fishing community during the 1860s. The image features a group of fishermen and fishwives, all dressed in typical clothing of the time, engaged in the bustling business of preparing and selling fresh fish. In the foreground, a fisherman, dressed in a blue smock and woolen hat, is seen mending his fishing net with great concentration. His weathered face and calloused hands speak to the long hours spent at sea, braving the elements to provide for his family. Behind him, a line of fishwives, clad in shawls and aprons, busily sort and pack the catch of the day into baskets. Their determined expressions and nimble fingers suggest the efficiency and skill required to keep up with the demands of the thriving fish trade. The scene is one of industry and cooperation, with the fishermen and fishwives working together to ensure a successful day's catch. The fish, fresh from the sea, are displayed on the ground, their gleaming scales reflecting the sunlight. The baskets, piled high with the day's catch, are a testament to the abundance of fish and the importance of this trade to the community. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of Newhaven's fisherfolk during the 1860s. The traditional costumes, from the fishermen's smocks and hats to the fishwives' shawls and aprons, add to the authenticity of the scene and serve as a reminder of the rich history and culture of Britain's fishing communities.
