During the fishing season, the natives seem roused from their constitutional lethargy; they assume an air of gaiety and mirth; and after good success, joy is heard in every corner.' (Nathaniel Jefferys, A Descriptive and Historical Account of the Isle of Man, 1809, M 00904)


Painting from an album of Manx watercolours by Emily M. Fane when she visited the Island in August 1843.
