EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Bombay Harbour: - Fishing boats, in the Monsoon" takes us back to 1845, showcasing a scene off the coast of what is now Mumbai, India. The image captures the essence of danger and drama as fishing boats brave the rough seas during the monsoon season.
The engraving, created by an unknown artist, is part of a collection from "Hindostan, The Shores of the Red Sea, and The Himalaya Mountains" published by Fisher, Son & Co. in London. The detailed depiction of fishermen navigating their sailboats and rafts amidst stormy waters gives us a glimpse into life on the Indian Ocean during the 19th century.
The rugged coastline with mountains looming in the background adds to the sense of peril faced by these fisherfolk as they go about their daily work. The presence of men on board these vessels highlights their resilience and determination in challenging conditions.
This historical print not only serves as a visual record but also evokes emotions of admiration for those who risked their lives at sea for sustenance. It stands as a testament to human perseverance in the face of nature's fury.
