EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bustling fish market in the 17th century. Painted by Cornelis Beelt, or possibly attributed to him, this oil on canvas artwork showcases a vibrant scene filled with ships, vendors, and fishermen. Measuring at an impressive 111.9x158.4 cm, it is currently housed at the Shipley Art Gallery in Gateshead, Tyne & Wear, UK. The image transports us back in time to a busy quayside where tradesmen are engaged in buying and selling fish from their stalls. The port comes alive with activity as fishermen bring in their fresh catch while customers eagerly browse through the selection available. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully portrays not only the human figures but also various animals that add life to the painting. From seagulls soaring above to other wildlife present near the water's edge, every element contributes to creating a realistic depiction of this lively marketplace. With its rich historical context and masterful execution, this artwork offers viewers a glimpse into daily life during the 17th century. It serves as a testament to both Beelt's artistic prowess and his ability to capture scenes that resonate with authenticity. Displayed proudly at Shipley Art Gallery for all art enthusiasts and history buffs alike to admire, this remarkable piece continues to inspire awe centuries after its creation.
