EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the stunning Porthcurno beach in St Levan, Cornwall, during the year 1898. The image showcases a group of photographers accompanied by a large baulk of timber resting on the sandy shore. As we gaze into the background, our eyes are drawn to Treryn Dinas, an Iron Age promontory fort perched majestically atop the cliffs. The skilled photographers captured in this snapshot are believed to be John Charles Burrow, William Thomas, and R. Arthur Thomas. Their presence adds depth and intrigue to this historical scene frozen in time by photographer Herbert Hughes. The rugged beauty of this coastal landscape near Land's End is truly awe-inspiring. Towering rock formations jut out from the cliff face while waves crash against them with unyielding force. Driftwood scattered along the shoreline serves as a reminder of nature's power and constant change. Cornwall's unique charm is palpable here; its headland stretching towards the vast expanse of sea creates an enchanting backdrop for any observer. This photograph encapsulates both tranquility and grandeur that can only be found on England's westernmost peninsula - Penwith. As we admire this remarkable piece from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let us appreciate not just its visual appeal but also its historical significance - preserving memories of a time long gone when these shores were untouched by modernity.
