EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1572, we are transported back in time to a bustling fish stall in a vibrant market. The scene is alive with activity as three remarkable women take center stage. At the forefront, an empowered woman fearlessly guts a fish with precision and expertise, showcasing her mastery of the trade. Her companion stands beside her, skillfully drumming up custom for their business. Their united efforts create an atmosphere of excitement and anticipation among potential customers. Meanwhile, another woman arrives at the market on horseback, bringing with her a variety of goods for sale. Her arrival adds to the dynamic energy already present in this lively marketplace. Each woman plays a crucial role in sustaining the local economy through their entrepreneurial spirit and dedication to their craft. This extraordinary engraving by Braun Civitates Orbis Terrarum captures not only the essence of commerce but also highlights female empowerment during an era when gender roles were often restrictive. It serves as a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of women throughout history who have contributed significantly to various industries. As we admire this historic image, let us celebrate these remarkable women who defied societal norms and made significant contributions to England's food industry through their unwavering commitment to providing quality goods and exceptional service at this bustling fish stall within Britain's thriving markets.
