EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "FISHING INDUSTRY, 1889. Albemarle sound fishing" takes us back to the late 19th century in North Carolina's Albemarle Sound region. The image beautifully captures the essence of a thriving fishing industry that was deeply intertwined with the lives of African American workers. In this scene, we see men diligently engaged in their work on the water. They stand tall and strong against the backdrop of an expansive Southeastern landscape. With their skilled hands and unwavering determination, these fishermen navigate through calm waters to secure their catch. The artist's attention to detail is evident as every line etched into this engraving tells a story. From the intricate waves gently lapping against their boats to each fisherman's focused expression, it becomes clear that this image is more than just a snapshot in time; it represents an entire way of life. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this print serves as a powerful reminder of the contributions made by African Americans within America's fishing industry during this era. Their resilience and expertise were instrumental in shaping coastal communities along Albemarle Sound. As we gaze upon this historic artwork from Granger Art on Demand, let us reflect on those who came before us - those hardworking individuals who dedicated themselves to providing for their families and sustaining an industry that continues to thrive today.
