EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The American Fisheries Question" takes us back to the 19th century when fishing was a way of life for many in Massachusetts' Gloucester. The print showcases a bustling scene on deck as fishermen diligently work to dry their catch. Intriguingly, two different types of fish are being prepared simultaneously. On one side, mackerels are carefully arranged on wooden flakes, left out in the open air to dry under the sun's warm rays. Meanwhile, on the other side of the deck, codfish are being dressed by skilled hands before they too will be set out to dry. The image provides an insight into not only the daily routines of these hardworking fishermen but also sheds light on "The American Fisheries Question". This historical event refers to a dispute between England and the United States over fishing rights off North America's Atlantic coast during this period. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that fishing played an essential role in shaping communities like Gloucester. It served as both a livelihood and a means of sustenance for countless individuals who relied heavily on these bountiful waters. Thanks to Bridgeman Images and Fine Art Finder for preserving this remarkable piece that allows us to glimpse into our maritime past and appreciate the dedication and resilience of those who made their living from America's fisheries.
