Cod fisheries was the first wealth of the coast of New England to be exploited by European settlers. Salt cod was traded all over western Europe from England to Spain, and was also traded in the Caribbean for Molasses - and thus was part of the trade triangle that involved slavery. This sculpture is at display at the Portsmouth Historical Society during the summer of 2024 (and is for sale).
