EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1908 showcases the majestic beauty of Old Lizard Head, located in Landewednack, Cornwall. The Victorian era charm is evident in this coastal landscape, as it transports us back to a time when nature's wonders were captured with meticulous precision. In the foreground, we are treated to an awe-inspiring view of Old Lizard Head itself, standing tall and proud against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. As our gaze wanders towards the top of this rocky peninsula, we can just make out two figures - Edith and Mitchell - perched on its summit. Their presence adds a sense of scale to this vast expanse and reminds us that even amidst such grandeur, human connection remains significant. To the right-hand side of the photograph lies another intriguing element: a steamship emerging from afar. Its silhouette gracefully glides across the horizon, hinting at distant adventures and journeys yet to be embarked upon. This subtle inclusion highlights both man's conquest over nature through technological advancements and his reliance on maritime transportation during this period. The photographer responsible for capturing this remarkable moment is Herbert Hughes. Through his lens, he has immortalized not only an iconic landmark but also an entire era defined by exploration and discovery along Cornwall's rugged coastline. This print serves as a testament to Cornwall's rich history while offering viewers today a glimpse into a world long past; one where natural wonders coexist harmoniously with human endeavors on land and sea alike.
