EDITORS COMMENTS
A captivating image of Wick Harbour during the summer fishing season in the 1910s, captured in this vintage photograph from Mary Evans Prints Online. The quay side teems with activity as fishermen prepare for another day at sea, their colorful boats lined up neatly against the waterfront. The harbor, a vital port in Scotland's historic fishing industry, bustles with energy as barrels and nets are loaded and unloaded. The pristine waters reflect the clear blue sky above, and the sun casts a warm glow over the scene. The rugged cliffs and rolling hills in the background add to the picturesque beauty of this Scottish coastal town. Fishermen in traditional attire, wearing their oilskins and caps, can be seen mending their nets or making last-minute repairs to their boats. The sense of community is palpable as families and neighbors work together to ensure a successful fishing season. The quay, adorned with colorful buildings and wooden structures, is a testament to the rich maritime history of Wick. The harbor's fleet, a symbol of the town's resilience and determination, is a sight to behold. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a simpler era when the rhythm of life revolved around the fishing season. It's a poignant reminder of the deep connection between the people of Wick and the sea, a bond that continues to thrive in this charming Scottish town.
