EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily life of Portuguese fishermen near Lisbon in the late 19th century. Taken around 1894 or 1895, the image shows a group of fishermen huddled around their traditional wooden boats, which are drawn up on the sandy beach. The men, dressed in simple clothing and sun-worn hats, are busy mending their nets and preparing their gear for the next fishing expedition. The boats, with their distinctive curved bows and brightly painted hulls, are a testament to the long and rich maritime history of Portugal. The boats were typically made from local woods, such as pine or cedar, and were designed to withstand the rough Atlantic waters. The scene unfolds on a sandy beach, with the clear blue waters of the sea lapping gently at the shoreline. The coastline in the background is dotted with rocky outcrops and cliffs, adding to the rugged, untamed beauty of the location. The Portuguese fishing industry has a long and proud tradition, with records dating back to the Roman period. The country's location on the westernmost point of Europe, with its extensive coastline, made it an ideal place for fishing. The industry was a vital source of livelihood for many communities, particularly in the coastal areas. This photograph by Terry Parker, from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily lives of these Portuguese fishermen and their connection to the sea. The image is a poignant reminder of the simple pleasures and challenges of life on the coast, and the enduring bond between the people and the sea.
