EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Alfred Hind Robinson, we are transported back in time to the serene beaches of Stiffkey, Norfolk around 1910. The image showcases a single female figure gracefully collecting cockles from the vast shoreline. Dressed in traditional attire, she wears a hat and a flowing dress that perfectly complements the picturesque scenery. As we delve deeper into the photo, we can almost feel the cool breeze coming off the North Sea as it gently rustles her clothing. With a basket at her side, our fisherwoman diligently gathers these small shellfish delicacies from their muddy habitat. Her expertise in navigating through this treacherous terrain is evident as she effortlessly moves along with purpose. This snapshot not only captures an intimate moment of coastal life but also serves as a testament to Britain's fishing industry during that era. It reminds us of the hard work and dedication required for sustenance and livelihoods in those times. Alfred Hind Robinson's masterful composition presents us with an evocative portrait format that allows us to appreciate every detail within this historical scene. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of simpler times when nature provided both challenge and abundance for those who knew how to harness its resources.
