EDITORS COMMENTS
The Arrival of the Catch - Boulogne-sur-Mer" is a captivating historical photograph that showcases the vibrant and bustling scene of a fish market in the early 20th century. Taken in the picturesque port town of Boulogne-sur-Mer, France, in 1903, this photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the local fishing community and the importance of the fish trade in this coastal town. The image captures the moment when the day's catch is brought ashore, with fishermen unloading their nets onto the sandy beach. The fish, still wriggling and glistening with seawater, are carefully sorted and placed into wicker baskets, ready to be transported to the Criee, the wholesale fish auction market. The background of the photograph reveals a lively scene of activity. Horse-drawn carts and wagons wait to be loaded with the day's catch, while men in traditional fisherman's attire haggle over prices and negotiate deals. The Criee, a large open-air building, looms in the background, a symbol of the town's rich fishing heritage and the economic importance of the fish trade. This photograph is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the fishermen and market vendors of Boulogne-sur-Mer, who have been bringing the freshest catches to the market for generations. The image transports us back in time, offering a unique insight into the history and culture of this charming French coastal town.
