EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time - a Coracle Fisherman navigating the waters of the River Teifi in Cenarth, Carmarthenshire, Wales. The coracle, a traditional round boat used by Ancient Britons, is expertly maneuvered by the skilled fisherman as he goes about his daily routine of fishing.
The scene evokes a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when life revolved around the rhythms of nature and the river provided sustenance for those who knew how to harness its bounty. The 1960s setting adds an extra layer of historical charm to this already fascinating glimpse into the past.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when craftsmanship and tradition were valued above all else. The coracle itself is a testament to human ingenuity and adaptability, serving as both a practical tool for fishing and a symbol of cultural heritage.
In today's fast-paced world, it is refreshing to be reminded of our connection to the natural world and the ways in which our ancestors lived in harmony with it. This print serves as a beautiful tribute to the enduring spirit of marine life and fishing traditions that have shaped communities along rivers like the Teifi for centuries.
