Photographer Rolf Nobel's 'Workers of the Sea' Chronicles Vanishing Maritime Traditions
Photographer Rolf Nobel has spent years capturing the lives of those who make their living from the sea. His new book, 'Workers of the Sea', showcases individuals from four continents whose traditional livelihoods are under threat.
Nobel's fascination with the sea began in childhood, inspired by his father's work in the harbor and the tales he shared. Over nearly five decades, Nobel has visited almost 50 countries, documenting the daily lives of seaweed collectors, crab fishermen, lighthouse keepers, and many more 'workers of the sea'.
The book offers a glimpse into a world that is rapidly changing. The people featured hail from diverse cultures and landscapes, yet they share a common bond with the ocean. Their stories serve as a reminder of the human connection to the sea and the challenges it faces.
Rolf Nobel's 'Workers of the Sea' is a testament to the resilience and spirit of those who depend on the ocean for their livelihood. It is also a poignant reminder of the need to preserve maritime traditions and protect the seas for future generations.
