Sir Roland Richardson:
“My love for fish started with their beautiful colors!
Fish were the most constant source of food for us growing up in the 1950’s in Grand Case, French St. Martin. We had meat only on Sundays. The rest of the time, it was vegetables and fruit according to their season. But fish, in all their varieties were there for us, four to five days of the week.

Caught with line and hook, or by nets, or in fish pots, we always seemed to have fish. They were different sizes and types. They were always colorful, exotic, though in those days I didn’t know that word. They were “other worldly”. They were from the mysterious Sea.
