EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Pearling Fleet Coming Back to Anchorage at Sunset" takes us back in time to the late 19th century in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). The artist behind this stunning piece is Alfred William Amandus Plate, whose talent shines through his portrayal of a picturesque scene. As the sun sets on the horizon, casting its golden glow over the tranquil waters, a fleet of fishing boats returns to their anchorage. Silhouetted against the vibrant sky, these vessels create an enchanting sight that captures both beauty and industry. The reflection of the setting sun on the water's surface adds an ethereal touch to this coastal landscape. Intriguingly, amidst this serene setting are two people waiting by the beach. Their presence hints at a sense of anticipation or perhaps longing for loved ones returning from their day's work at sea. This monochrome image evokes a sense of nostalgia and invites us to imagine life during that era. Alfred William Amandus Plate's artwork not only showcases his artistic prowess but also serves as a historical document capturing local industry and transportation methods prevalent in early 20th-century Ceylon. It is part of "The Hundred Best Views of Ceylon" collection published by Plate Ltd. , offering viewers a glimpse into various geographical features across this beautiful island nation. This remarkable print transports us back in time while reminding us of humanity's deep connection with nature and our reliance on it for sustenance and livelihoods.
