EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "By the famous Cenarth bridge, the coracle fishers set out for a day's fishing" we are transported back to the 1940s in Carmarthenshire, Wales. The image showcases an age-old tradition that has been passed down through generations. As the morning mist gently rises from the river, pairs of skilled coracle fishermen row their small round boats away from shore. Adhering to strict rules, each pair maintains a distance of at least 200 feet from one another as they embark on their daily quest for a bountiful catch. It is not uncommon to witness womenfolk and children gathering near the bridge to bid them farewell and offer well wishes for successful fishing endeavors. The scene exudes tranquility and rural charm. The picturesque countryside serves as a perfect backdrop for this snapshot of life along the riverbank. A loyal dog accompanies one of the fishermen, faithfully watching over his master's boat. This photograph captures more than just a moment frozen in time; it encapsulates an entire industry built upon hard work and dedication. These men brave unpredictable waters day after day, ensuring that their families are provided for by bringing home fresh catches. With its rich historical context and timeless appeal, this Memory Lane Print transports us back to an era when traditions were cherished, jobs were defined by nature's bounty, and communities thrived on close-knit relationships forged through shared experiences like these humble fishing expeditions.
