EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful woodcut print titled "Fish Stories" we are transported back to the 19th century, where anglers gather around to share their tales of success and failure. The English School captures the essence of fishing culture with a touch of humor and charm. The scene is set in an old wooden cabin, where fishermen from all walks of life have gathered after a long day on the water. Their animated expressions reveal the excitement and anticipation as they recount their adventures. Some proudly display their catch, while others hang their heads in defeat, having lost their prized fish. This comic illustration was originally created for "1,000 Quaint Cuts" by Field and Tuer, published by The Leadenhall Press in 1886. It exemplifies the artistry of woodcuts with its intricate details and decorative elements. The image not only captures the joy and camaraderie among anglers but also highlights the timeless nature of fishing stories that continue to entertain us today. Whether it's a tale of triumph or misfortune, these anecdotes remind us of our shared love for angling and the unpredictable nature of our aquatic pursuits. Bridgeman Images has preserved this charming piece from its private collection within Look and Learn / Rosenberg Collection. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and storytelling prowess found within quaint cuts like this one – forever amusing us with its whimsical depiction of fishing folklore.
