EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a traditional fishmonger's stall in the narrow back streets of Lisbon, Portugal, in 1989. The mature woman, dressed in a black shawl, intently focuses on her work as she cleans fresh fish and octopus with deft precision. Her weathered hands move nimbly over the slippery surfaces, the sunlight filtering through the cobweb-covered roof casting long shadows on the rough stone floor. The pungent aroma of the sea and the sound of water splashing fill the air, transporting us to a time when life moved at a slower pace. The scene is a testament to the enduring tradition of fishing and food markets in Portugal, where the daily catch is sold directly to the community. The woman's stoic expression and the simple tools of her trade convey a sense of pride and resilience, as she continues her role in the intricate web of Lisbon's vibrant food culture.
