EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, created by an unknown artist in the 16th century, transports us back to a time when fishing and drying cod in Newfoundland was a way of life. The print showcases the laborious process of this ancient practice, capturing the essence of human perseverance and connection with nature. Set against the backdrop of a pristine beach on Canada's Atlantic coast, we witness a bustling scene filled with activity. A sturdy barque is anchored offshore, serving as both transport vehicle and refuge for these hardworking fishermen. With their nets cast wide into the ocean, they patiently await their catch - schools of cod swimming abundantly beneath the surface. The image also reveals another dimension to this narrative: that of survival and sustenance. As fish are hauled onto shore, men diligently work together to dry them under the sun's warm rays. This arduous task ensures preservation for future consumption during long winters or distant voyages. Beyond its historical significance lies a deeper symbolism within this engraving. The presence of wildlife reminds us that humans are not alone in their quest for nourishment; animals too rely on these bountiful waters for their own survival. Luisa Ricciarini has masterfully captured this pivotal moment in North American history through her interpretation of "Fishing and Drying Cod in Newfoundland". Through her skillful handiwork, she invites viewers to reflect upon our shared heritage as Canadians living on America's continent – one deeply intertwined with nature's abundance and our collective efforts to sustain
