EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a vibrant scene from the early 20th century, showcasing a woman selling herring in a bustling harbour. The colour litho brings to life the vivid details of this postcard-like image, highlighting the charm and authenticity of the era. Amidst rows of wooden barrels and stalls, fish wives like her played an integral role in coastal communities as they skillfully marketed their fresh catch. With baskets filled with glistening herrings by her side, she stands proudly on the streets, embodying strength and resilience. The coast serves as a picturesque backdrop for this snapshot of maritime life. As fishermen go about their daily routines, folk songs fill the air, adding to the enchantment of this coastal feature. The coastline stretches out behind her, reminding us of both its beauty and importance to those who rely on it for their livelihoods. Every detail in this composition tells a story - from the worn barrows to the bustling streets - painting a picture of an era long gone but not forgotten. This postcard transports us back in time and allows us to appreciate not only the hard work involved in fishing but also how it shaped these communities' identities. As we admire this woman's determination and dedication to her trade, let us remember that behind every sale lies generations worth of knowledge passed down through families. This print is truly a testament to human connection with nature's abundance and our ability to sustain ourselves through cooperation with wildlife animals such as herrings – all captured beautifully by Bridg
