EDITORS COMMENTS
Fishing with Cormorants, China, 1858 - A Timeless Tradition of Harmony between Man and Nature This photograph, taken in China in 1858, showcases an age-old fishing technique that has been practiced along the country's rivers and lakes for over a thousand years. Known as 'cormorant fishing,' this traditional method involves the use of tame cormorants to catch fish. In the image, we see a group of skilled fishermen aboard a quaint wooden junk, their faces etched with the wisdom of generations. They hold onto the birds' collars, guiding them through the water as the cormorants dive beneath the surface to catch fish in their beaks. The birds are trained to return the larger fish to their masters, while spitting out the smaller ones. The serene scene is a testament to the deep connection between man and nature that has existed in China for centuries. The cormorants, with their sleek, black bodies and distinctive white plumage, glide gracefully through the water, their powerful webbed feet propelling them forward. The fishermen, dressed in simple clothing, seem to blend seamlessly with their surroundings, their focus on the task at hand. The tranquil river, dotted with lotus flowers and lush vegetation, adds to the idyllic setting. The sun sets in the background, casting a warm, golden glow over the scene, as if preserving this moment in time for generations to come. This photograph offers a glimpse into China's rich history and cultural heritage, showcasing a time when man and nature worked in harmony to provide sustenance and livelihoods. It is a reminder of the beauty and simplicity of traditional practices, and the importance of preserving them for future generations.
