In this picture, fishermen in a small rowing boat have been out to collect crab or lobster pots. Now, they are pulling hard on the oars to join their ship. The number of ships shows how busy the North Sea was in the 19th century. Edwin Hayes was known for the naturalness of his depictions of billowing sails, rough water and stormy skies. He lived in Ireland.); 穢 Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums; English, out of copyright.
