EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving "Embarkation at St John's, Newfoundland, of the Honourable John Kent, One of the Newfoundland Fishery Commissioners" captures a significant moment in Canadian maritime history. The image portrays the bustling scene as Commissioner John Kent prepares to set sail from St. John's, Newfoundland. In this 19th-century artwork by an English School artist, we see ships lined up along the harbor and a flurry of activity on land. People are seen boarding boats and bidding farewell to loved ones. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation and excitement for what lies ahead. John Kent was one of the esteemed commissioners responsible for overseeing the Newfoundland fishery industry during this time period. This engraving serves as a visual testament to his important role in shaping Canada's fishing heritage. St. John's, located on the eastern coast of Newfoundland, has long been recognized as a vital hub for fishing activities in North America. As such, this image not only represents Commissioner Kent's embarkation but also symbolizes the broader significance of Canada's rich maritime traditions. This print offers viewers a glimpse into a bygone era when seafaring played an integral part in shaping communities and economies across Canada's western hemisphere. It stands as both a historical record and an artistic tribute to those who dedicated their lives to these coastal industries.
