EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "River Fishing" takes us back to the 19th century, where we witness a scene of tranquility and labor along the riverbanks. The French School artist skillfully captures the essence of medieval life in this print, which is now part of a private collection. The image depicts fishermen engrossed in their work as they cast their nets into the flowing waters. This illustration originally appeared in Paul Lacroix's book "Science and Literature in the Middle Ages" published by Bickers in 1878. Thanks to digital restoration techniques, we can now appreciate this artwork with enhanced clarity. The Latin edition of Pliny's writings on natural history inspired this woodcut engraving, showcasing an early form of fishing during the Middle Ages. The fishermen are seen using firwood timber for firewood or kindling purposes while engaged in their daily routine. As we gaze at this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it transports us to a time when nature provided sustenance and livelihoods were built upon its resources. Let yourself be captivated by the intricate details within each stroke and immerse yourself in a world that once was but lives on through these timeless engravings.
