Mrs. Logan and Two Unknown Women, Newhaven, 1843/47 - A Glimpse into the Lives of Scottish Fisherwomen
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, taken by David Octavius Hill and Robert Adamson in the mid-19th century, offers a rare glimpse into the lives of three women from Newhaven, Edinburgh, Scotland. The image showcases Mrs. Logan alongside two unidentified fisherwomen dressed in traditional striped costumes. The women's attire reflects their occupation as fishwives - strong and resilient individuals who played a vital role in supporting their fishing communities. Their bonnets and aprons add an air of authenticity to their appearance while highlighting the distinct cultural heritage of Scotland. Hill & Adamson's mastery is evident in this carbon print which was produced around 1916. The attention to detail captures not only the physical features but also conveys a sense of character and strength within these women. Through this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever - perhaps after a long day at sea or during a brief respite from their arduous work. It serves as a testament to the resilience and determination that characterized these remarkable individuals who contributed significantly to Britain's fishing industry. Displayed proudly at the Art Institute Chicago, this piece stands as both artistry and historical documentation; it reminds us of our shared human experiences across time and celebrates those whose stories often go untold.
