EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to the picturesque village of Polperro, Cornwall, on a sunny day in June 1904. The focus of the image is Jane Marks, a young woman who would later become Charles Jolliffe's wife, peacefully knitting along the cliff path that stretches west of the charming harbor. As she sits perched on a rock ledge overlooking the breathtaking coastline, her concentration is evident as she skillfully works with yarn and needles. Accompanying Jane is possibly Wilf Marks, whose name can be found marked on one of the original prints. Although his identity remains somewhat mysterious within this snapshot frozen in time, his presence adds an air of intrigue to this already enchanting scene. The photographer behind this evocative capture is Herbert Hughes. Through his lens, he masterfully frames both Jane and her surroundings - rugged cliffs meeting crashing waves below - showcasing not only their natural beauty but also providing us with a glimpse into life in early 20th-century Cornwall. This remarkable photograph offers us a rare opportunity to connect with history and appreciate the simplicity and tranquility that once graced these coastal landscapes. It serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with capturing moments through photography and preserving them for generations to come.
