Limited edition of a striking photograph taken by Steve McCurry in 1995.
“These fishermen off the South coast of Sri Lanka used this bygone traditional method to catch fish in shallow waters. Very few fishermen are still keeping this tradition alive, as most of them have moved toward more modern methods. They demonstrate both independence and solidarity of community as they endeavor to provide sustenance for their families. Inherent in solidarity is the concept of responsibility to our fellow humans. This principle is especially relevant in these turbulent times.”
-Steve McCurry
