EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Fish-Breeding, a Surrey Trout-Farm" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the intricate operations of a fish farm in Surrey. The print showcases the expertise of Walter Paget, an acclaimed artist whose work graced the pages of The Illustrated London News. In this scene, we find ourselves immersed in the bustling activity at Hind Head's Surrey Trout Farm. A female worker can be seen skillfully catching fish from a stream and carefully adding them to breeding ponds. Nearby, another worker is engaged in hatching eggs while squeezing ova into separate containers for further operations. The attention to detail is remarkable as we observe Mr. T Andrews overseeing the feeding process with utmost care. The picturesque pond house stands proudly amidst this thriving environment, serving as both shelter and hub for these delicate aquatic creatures. This enchanting print not only captures the beauty of wildlife but also highlights mankind's dedication towards preserving nature through responsible fish breeding practices. It transports us to an era where sustainable farming techniques were already being employed. As we gaze upon this historic image, it serves as a reminder that our relationship with animals has always been intertwined with our desire to understand and protect them.
