EDITORS COMMENTS
"Step back in time with this photograph of Fisherman Jimbo Hurr, taken on the picturesque beach of Southwold, Suffolk around the year 1907. The Edwardian era comes alive as we witness the daily routine of this dedicated fisherman, dressed in traditional cap and workwear, amidst the backdrop of the quaint coastal town. The scene is set against the rugged East Anglian coastline, where the sea meets the sandy and pebbly shore. The fisherman's boats, with their distinctive sails, are scattered along the beach, ready for another day at sea. The boats, with their simple yet sturdy design, reflect the hardworking nature of the fishermen who relied on them for their livelihood. As the sun rises over the horizon, Jimbo Hurr and his fellow fishermen would have set out to sea, braving the elements to catch their daily haul. The fishing industry was a vital part of the local economy, providing employment and sustenance for the community. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, a time when the sea was a source of both beauty and livelihood. It invites us to reflect on the simple pleasures of life and the resilience of those who worked the land and sea to provide for their families and communities." The Patricia Aubrey Collection / Mary Evans Prints Online brings us this evocative image, allowing us to appreciate the history and charm of Southwold and the fishermen who once called it home. This photograph is not only a beautiful piece of art but also a window into the past, offering us a glimpse into the lives of those who lived and worked along the Suffolk coast in the early 1900s.
