Fishing at Beykoz, Turkey: A Timeless Tradition Unfolds This evocative photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, as a dedicated fisherman goes about his daily routine at Beykoz, Turkey. The scene unfolds from the deck of the HMS Iron Duke, a historical vessel that bears witness to the enduring tradition of fishing in this picturesque bay. The fisherman, perched precariously atop a large pole, expertly connects sets of nets, meticulously weaving them together to form an intricate web in the water. His focus is unwavering, as he skillfully navigates the delicate balance between the pole, the water, and the weight of the nets. In the foreground, a small rowing boat glides effortlessly through the array of nets, its oars slicing through the calm waters with a rhythmic, soothing cadence. The boat, a quintessential symbol of the region's maritime heritage, adds a sense of tranquility to the scene. Beykoz, also known as Beicos, is a historic fishing village located on the Asian side of Istanbul, Turkey. For generations, its residents have relied on the bountiful waters of the Bosphorus to sustain their livelihoods. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of this charming community, where the ancient art of fishing continues to thrive. This image, brought to you by Mary Evans Prints Online, serves as a poignant reminder of the timeless connection between the people of Beykoz and the sea, a bond that has endured through the ages.
