Fishermen Handkerchief Knotted Norfolk Overstrand Pipe Promenade Wellies 1935
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time at Overstrand, Norfolk in August 1935. A group of fishermen, dressed in their wellies and knotted handkerchiefs, stand by their boat on the promenade gazing out to sea. The scene is rich with historical charm, offering a glimpse into the working-class life of fishermen in 20th century Britain.
The men's weathered faces tell stories of hard work and dedication to their trade, while the pipe clenched between one fisherman's teeth adds a touch of character to the scene. The simplicity of their attire and surroundings speaks volumes about the social history of this coastal community.
As they survey the horizon for signs of fish or changing weather patterns, one can almost feel the salt spray on their skin and hear the seagulls calling overhead. This image transports viewers back in time to an era when life was simpler yet filled with challenges that required resilience and strength.
Whether you have personal ties to Norfolk or simply appreciate historical photography, this print from Mary Evans Prints Online is sure to evoke nostalgia and admiration for those who made a living from the sea. It serves as a reminder of our connection to nature and our dependence on its bounty for sustenance.
