EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse into the historical and traditional practice of fishing with cormorants in China. The image showcases a group of Chinese fishermen dressed in intricate costumes, surrounded by baskets, nets, and hooks as they skillfully navigate the waters with their avian companions.
The use of cormorants for fishing dates back to 1814 and has been an integral part of Chinese marine life and history. These birds are trained to dive into the water to catch fish, which are then retrieved by the fishermen using their nets. This unique method of fishing not only demonstrates the close relationship between humans and animals but also highlights the resourcefulness and ingenuity of these skilled fishermen.
The scene depicted in this print is both visually stunning and culturally rich, offering viewers a window into a world where tradition meets innovation. The vibrant colors, detailed costumes, and serene setting all come together to create a truly mesmerizing piece that speaks volumes about the timeless art of fishing with cormorants in China.
Mary Evans Picture Library has beautifully captured this moment in time, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this ancient practice. It serves as a reminder of our connection to nature and our ability to adapt traditional methods for modern-day living.
