Long-line fishing in the North Sea - Lying-to in a squall,
EDITORS COMMENTS
an evocative and captivating image from the Victorian era, showcases the raw and unforgiving beauty of the North Sea, as depicted in "The Graphic: An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper Volume 33," published in January to June of 1886. The black-and-white engraving captures the moment of resilience and determination as fishermen bravely endure the wrath of the sea during a squall. The image presents a fleet of traditional sailing boats, their sails furled, lying-to in the tumultuous waters of the North Sea. The boats, with their distinctive rigging and hull designs, are a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the British mariners of the time. The North Sea, with its vast expanse and powerful waves, lies in the background, its rough surface reflecting the stormy weather that has forced the fishermen to seek refuge. The scene unfolds in the 19th century, a time when fishing was a significant part of the British economy and way of life. The long-line fishing method, which is depicted in the image, was a common practice during this era. The fishermen would cast their lines, each baited with a hook, into the sea and wait for a bite. This method required patience, skill, and a deep understanding of the sea and its inhabitants. Despite the treacherous conditions, the fishermen remain steadfast, their focus on the task at hand. The image serves as a reminder of the indomitable spirit of those who braved the elements to provide for their communities. The print, a valuable addition to any collection, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the sea was a source of both livelihood and challenge.
