EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving by Yan Dargent, titled "Shark fishing" transports us to a time when hunting and fishing were not only recreational activities but also means of survival. The image depicts a dramatic moment aboard a boat, where the hunter has successfully hooked a massive shark at the end of his line. The intensity of the scene is palpable as the powerful creature emerges from the depths of the ocean, its jaws wide open in defiance. The artist skillfully captures this pivotal moment, showcasing both the danger and excitement that come with such an encounter. Dargent's attention to detail allows us to appreciate not only the sheer size and strength of this magnificent predator but also highlights other wildlife animals present in their natural habitat. We can see several animals surrounding the boat, reminding us of how interconnected ecosystems are. While some may view this act as poaching or sinful, it is essential to remember that during this era, human survival often relied on these practices. This artwork serves as a historical reminder of our complex relationship with nature and how our understanding and treatment have evolved over time. Patrice Cartier's print beautifully preserves Dargent's work for future generations to admire and reflect upon. It invites viewers to ponder humanity's impact on wildlife while appreciating artistry that captures both beauty and reality in one frame.
