A fisherman hauls in a frame net, 1937
From a height, perhaps a bridge or a wall above the bank, the view looks straight down on a long, flat fishing boat anchored in the current beside a stone wall; the fisherman heaves up a wide net stretched on a bow-shaped frame, water streaming from it, and the silver catch spills over the floor of the boat, where boxes wait. Such lift nets were an old method of the Rhine fishermen, whose trade was already shrinking with the pollution and the traffic on the river.
