Peel Ross Fishing, ca. 1856-59 - A Glimpse into Victorian Countryside Recreation
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white albumen silver print, titled "Peel Ross Fishing" transports us back to the serene Scottish countryside of the mid-19th century. Created by Horatio Ross, a renowned Scottish photographer and sportsman, this image captures a moment frozen in time. In this picturesque scene, we see a group of men engrossed in their favorite pastime - fishing. Set against the backdrop of a tranquil river surrounded by lush trees and rocks, these gentlemen are fully immersed in nature's embrace. One man is seated on a rock with his fishing rod poised for action while others stand nearby, eagerly awaiting their turn. The composition exudes an air of tranquility as the men find solace amidst Scotland's breathtaking landscape. The attention to detail is remarkable; every fold in their clothing and every strand of hair is meticulously captured by Ross' lens. This photograph not only showcases the beauty of nature but also provides insight into Victorian leisure activities. It serves as a window into an era when fishing was not just about catching fish but also about finding respite from bustling city life. Preserved within the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this piece stands as a testament to both Horatio Ross' artistic prowess and his passion for capturing moments that celebrate our connection with nature.
