EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the essence of Charles Cotton (1630-1687), an English poet, parodist, translator, and angler, in a moment of tranquil contemplation by the river. The image, dated between the years 1630 and 1687, shows Cotton dressed in the attire of a gentleman angler, with a leather pouch and a woven basket at his side. His signature, elegantly inscribed in the bottom right corner, attests to the authenticity of the scene. Charles Cotton is best known for his literary contributions, particularly his parodies and translations. However, his deep connection to the natural world is evident in his Angling Book, which was published posthumously in 1676. This seminal work, considered one of the most influential angling texts in English literature, offers practical advice on fishing techniques, as well as philosophical musings on the joys of angling and the beauty of the natural world. The print, with its rich colors and intricate details, transports us back in time to the 17th century, allowing us to witness the simple pleasures of a man at one with nature. The gentle flow of the river, the lush greenery, and the peaceful surroundings all contribute to the serene atmosphere, offering a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. This historical print is a testament to the enduring appeal of the great outdoors and the timeless pursuit of angling. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our natural heritage and cherishing the simple pleasures that nature provides.
