EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of launching a traditional Canvas Curragh on the shores of North West Donegal, Ireland, circa early 1900s. The image portrays a man in a timeless scene, standing on the sandy beach with his back to the crashing waves. He pushes with all his might against the resistance of the sea, preparing to send the hand-woven curragh, a type of ancient Irish fishing boat, out to sea. The canvas covering, which protected the boat from the elements, is rolled up and tied to the side, revealing the intricate design of the wooden hull. The rugged coastline and the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean serve as a striking backdrop to this moment of determination and connection to the land and sea. The launching of a curragh was a communal event, a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the coastal communities in Donegal, who relied on these boats for their livelihoods. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the sea was a vital source of sustenance and adventure.
