1889 Fishermen Fishing Roger Rogers Shad

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "FISHING, 1889. Preparing nets for shad fishing" we are transported back to a late 19th-century American scene. The image showcases a group of hardworking fishermen diligently preparing their nets on the shores of a serene river. Engraved after a drawing by W. A. Rogers in 1889, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of an era when fishing was not just a pastime but also an essential means of sustenance. The men in the picture can be seen engrossed in their task, their weathered faces reflecting years spent braving the elements to provide for themselves and their communities. Their expertise is evident as they meticulously mend and arrange the nets with practiced hands, ensuring that every detail is perfect before setting out onto the water. The exterior setting adds to the charm of this historical snapshot - tall trees frame the riverbank while distant hills create a picturesque backdrop against which these dedicated fishermen ply their trade. This remarkable engraving by W. A. Rogers immortalizes an important aspect of American history - one that highlights both man's connection with nature and his relentless pursuit for survival. As we gaze upon this timeless piece from Granger Art on Demand, we are reminded of our roots and how integral activities like fishing were to shaping our nation's identity.
