EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a wealthy gent making his selection from a fantastically well-stocked fishmonger's shop in the early 19th century. The C19th fish market bustles with activity, as every type of potentially-edible marine creature is displayed for sale. The shopkeeper's meticulously arranged display cases are filled to the brim with an impressive array of fish, including perch, lobster, cod, halibut, plaice, eels, and more. The wealthy gent, dressed in fashionable attire, carefully examines the fish, no doubt pondering which catch of the day will grace his table that evening. The atmosphere is lively and bustling, as other customers haggle with the fishmonger over prices and freshness. The shop's wooden shelves and displays are worn from years of use, adding to the authenticity of the scene. This historical photograph offers a glimpse into the past, when fishmongers played a vital role in the food trade and were a common sight on the streets of urban areas. The image is a testament to the rich culinary traditions of the past, and the enduring popularity of fish as a staple food source. The intricate details of the scene, from the fishmonger's apron to the individual scales on the fish, make this a truly mesmerizing image. It is a must-have for anyone with an interest in history, food, or the early days of the fish trade. This print is available for purchase through Mary Evans Prints Online, and is a wonderful addition to any collection.
