The Fishing Fleet of Saint Pierre - A Glimpse into the Maritime Heritage of Newfoundland
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This lithograph, part of a private collection, offers a window into the bustling fishing fleet of Saint Pierre in the early 20th century. The artwork was originally created as an illustration for "The World and its People" a comprehensive tour book by Charles F Horne published in 1924. In this image, we are transported to the rugged shores of Newfoundland, Canada. The scene depicts numerous fishing vessels dotting the harbor, their sails billowing against the winds that sweep across the North Atlantic. Each boat is meticulously detailed, showcasing various sizes and designs that reflect both tradition and innovation. The fishermen themselves are absent from this particular view; however, their presence is felt through these majestic ships that were their lifeline to survival. These brave seafarers would venture out into treacherous waters to harvest bountiful catches of codfish—a vital resource for both sustenance and commerce in this region. Through its exquisite lithography technique, this print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also pays homage to an industry deeply intertwined with Newfoundland's identity. It serves as a reminder of the resilience and determination exhibited by generations who relied on these seas for their livelihoods. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can't help but be transported back to an era when wooden ships sailed proudly across vast oceans—forever
