EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the early 1900s, this vintage print showcases the idyllic Portscatho harbour slipway and village in Gerrans, Cornwall. Bathed in warm sunlight on a lazy summer afternoon, a delightful scene unfolds at the bottom of the boat slipway. A group of carefree children and their loyal canine companion find joy and relaxation amidst their playful adventures. On the left side of the slipway, a small boy and girl don checked cotton summer attire, possibly siblings enjoying their shared escapades. Standing nearby is an older girl surrounded by a lively group of children – friends or neighbors perhaps? As two men diligently work on repairing the slipway with tools like pickaxes, shovels, and wheelbarrows, they are observed by an attentive young boy. Atop the slipway's entrance appears another boy who has just arrived to join in on the fun-filled activities below. The slip itself is scattered with numerous boats that add charm to this picturesque coastal setting. Photographed by Arthur William Jordan, this image captures not only Victorian and Edwardian aesthetics but also embodies Cornish fishing village life during that era. With its timeless appeal and historical significance preserved within this print from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, it serves as a window into simpler times when innocence thrived amidst breathtaking seaside landscapes.
