Original Antique Print of Yuracaré Fishing in Peru by Dureau, c.1840 Description: An original antique hand-coloured lithograph titled "Pêche des Yuracarès (Pérou)", depicting members of the Yuracaré people fishing in the tropical forests of Peru. The print was published in Paris during the mid-nineteenth century by Dufour, Mulat et Boulanger. The scene portrays Indigenous fishermen standing in a shallow river using long spears or fishing poles, surrounded by lush tropical vegetation, towering palms and dense rainforest. Figures gathered along the riverbank observe the activity, creating a peaceful yet vivid depiction of daily life in the Amazonian region.
