One that Got Away
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a humorous and charming illustration from the 1830s, published in 1838, depicting a scene of frustration and mishap common to any angler. The illustration, created with intricate crowquill pen and ink techniques by an unidentified artist, captures the moment of despair and disbelief experienced by a man as he watches his hard-earned catch slip away from his grasp. The scene is set on the shores of a tranquil body of water, where two men, dressed in the fashion of the early Victorian era, are engaged in a day of fishing. One man, with a triumphant expression, holds up a large fish he has just caught, while the other, with a look of disbelief and disappointment, watches in horror as his own fish slips from the line and swims back into the water. The boys in the background, observing the scene with amusement, add to the light-hearted and humorous tone of the illustration. The artist's skillful use of line and shading creates a sense of depth and texture, bringing the scene to life and making it feel as if the viewer is right there on the shore, witnessing the event unfold. The playful and whimsical style of the illustration, combined with the universal experience of losing a fish, makes "One that Got Away" a timeless and delightful piece of art from the 1830s. This illustration, with its humorous and comic portrayal of a classic fishing mishap, is a testament to the enduring appeal of the sport and the human spirit. It is a reminder that even in the face of disappointment, there is always the hope of another catch just around the corner. This illustration is a treasure from the Mary Evans Picture Library, a valuable resource for historians, artists, and anyone with an appreciation for the rich visual history of the past.
