EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of Gurnards Head, St Ives takes us back to the 19th century in England. The image, captured by an English photographer whose identity remains unknown, is part of a private collection. It was featured in the Photographic View Album of Penzance and Neighbourhood published by Shaws Bazaar around 1895. Gurnards Head, located in Cornwall, is beautifully depicted against a backdrop of rugged cliffs and crashing waves. The monochromatic tones add a timeless quality to the scene, emphasizing the raw beauty of this coastal landscape. The photograph transports us to a different era when Britain was known as Great Britain or simply GB. It reminds us that history has shaped our present and offers glimpses into the past through visual records like this one. As we gaze at this historic sight from over a century ago, we can almost feel ourselves standing on those very cliffs, taking in the breathtaking view with all our senses heightened. The sense of awe and wonder that must have been experienced by those who stood there long before us is palpable even today. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of art for future generations to appreciate. Through their efforts, we are able to connect with history and immerse ourselves in its rich tapestry through these stunning illustrations and photographs.
