About this motif
Shrimp cutters fish for North Sea brown shrimp with nets set out to the sides, and the catch is often cooked on board. Harbours such as Büsum and Greetsiel are known for their cutter fleets.
König's miniature shows a red cutter with both net booms extended, circled by gulls, with a flat shore and houses in the background. Image about 5 x 5 cm, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
