EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Johannes Janssonius takes us back to 17th century Spain, specifically the bustling fishing port in Cadiz city. The intricate details and fine artistry of this print transport us to a time when the fishing industry thrived along the embankment of this vibrant coastal town. The scene depicts a non-urban setting with an elevated view, allowing us to observe the daily activities that unfolded during that era. In the foreground, we see several huts and tents where fishermen likely sought shelter or stored their equipment. A group of people can be seen in the background, going about their business amidst the picturesque river flowing nearby. One cannot help but notice a campfire burning brightly near one of the huts, perhaps serving as both a source of warmth and sustenance for those working tirelessly on their boats. This illustration captures not only the physical labor involved in fishing but also highlights how integral it was to everyday life in Cadiz city. Johannes Janssonius's attention to detail is evident throughout this engraving, showcasing his skill as an artist. Through his work, he immortalizes this significant aspect of Spanish history and invites viewers to appreciate both its beauty and historical significance
