EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fishing with Indians, 1606" captures a scene from the 17th century in India. Created by artist Theodore de Bry as part of his Journeys across India series, this engraving showcases the busy and vibrant fishing culture of the country during that time. In the image, we see a group of Indian men aboard a fishing boat or punt on a riverbank. They are engaged in their daily work, casting wide nets into the water to catch fish. The geographical features surrounding them create a picturesque backdrop for their laborious task. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to this seventeenth-century artwork. The intricate calligraphy accompanying the image provides additional context and enhances its artistic appeal. Through this print, de Bry metaphorically transports us back in time to witness the industriousness and dedication of these fishermen. It offers us a glimpse into their lives and highlights their reliance on water transport for sustenance. As we observe these hardworking individuals going about their tasks, we can't help but appreciate both the beauty of nature's bounty and humanity's ability to adapt to its surroundings. This piece serves as a testament to our shared history while also reminding us of how much has changed over centuries.
