An Anxious Moment - A Fisherman and Family on the Quay, 1884
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative engraving, originally entitled "An anxious moment," captures a poignant scene of a small family and a fisherman standing on a quay, gazing out to sea. The fisherman, dressed in waders and with a coil of rope in hand, appears ready for action. The anxious expression on his face and the worried glances exchanged among the family members suggest that a vessel is approaching the quayside under difficult circumstances. The intricate details of the engraving transport us back in time to the late 19th century, when the livelihoods of many coastal communities depended on the unpredictable sea. The rough waters of the Atlantic Ocean, with whitecaps and waves crashing against the shore, add to the sense of anticipation and uncertainty. The image, created by an unknown artist in 1884, is a poignant reminder of the risks and challenges faced by fishermen and their families. The historical significance of this engraving lies in its portrayal of the close-knit relationships that existed between families and their communities, and the resilience and determination required to survive in a harsh and unforgiving environment. The intricately detailed engraving, with its rich textures and tonal variations, is a testament to the skill and artistry of the engraver. The use of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the scene, drawing the viewer in and immersing them in the story unfolding before their eyes. This beautiful and historic print, with its timeless themes and emotional depth, is a must-have for anyone interested in maritime history, social history, or the art of engraving. It is a reminder of the human spirit and the enduring power of art to capture and preserve moments in time.
