EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "First Person Singular (engraving)" takes us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century Britain. The image, created by Arthur Hopkins and now part of a private collection, showcases a gentleman immersed in the art of angling. In this picturesque scene, we find ourselves amidst lush greenery as the gentleman stands on the riverbank. With his rod in hand and branches gently swaying above him, he exudes an air of tranquility and focus. His skilled hands are meticulously pulling at the fly, persuasively coaxing it into the water with hopes of enticing a prized catch. This engraving serves as an illustration for David Christie Murray's novel "First Person Singular" published in The Graphic magazine in August 1885. It transports us to a time when fishing was not just a pastime but also an integral part of British culture. As we delve into this visual masterpiece, we can almost feel the gentle breeze rustling through our hair and hear the soothing sound of flowing water. This image encapsulates both nature's beauty and man's harmonious connection with it. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded that fishing is not merely about catching fish; it is about immersing oneself in nature and finding solace within its embrace. It invites us to appreciate our surroundings with renewed awe while honoring traditions that have shaped Great Britain's rich heritage for centuries.
