EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving titled "Was It A Bream? A Fisherman's Story" captures a humorous and adventurous moment in the world of angling. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases the talent and wit of its creator. In this scene, we see a dog named Master Izaak Walton Junior accompanying his master on a fishing expedition. As the intrepid sportsman casts his line for the first time, he is taken aback by an unexpected jerk. The tail of a bream fish adorns his hook, entangling itself with such force that it swallows him whole. With great skill and imagination, the artist depicts this comical tale as our angler is dragged underwater while still holding onto his walking stick or cane. The animal kingdom comes alive as various creatures observe this spectacle unfold. This engraving not only highlights the beauty of nature but also adds a touch of whimsy to angling folklore. It reminds us that even experienced fishermen can encounter surprises during their adventures. With its intricate details and clever storytelling, "Was It A Bream? A Fisherman's Story" is sure to delight both art enthusiasts and fishing enthusiasts alike.
