EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the picturesque fishing village of Polruan, nestled in the heart of Cornwall, during the enchanting month of May in 1949. The image beautifully captures a panoramic view of this idyllic Cornish gem, showcasing its timeless charm and natural beauty. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the Polruan-Fowey ferry landing, which stands proudly on the riverbank. Its sturdy structure serves as a gateway between these two quaint villages, connecting them through their shared love for maritime traditions. As we gaze further into the scene, our eyes are drawn to an array of small fishing boats gently bobbing in Fowey Estuary's calm waters. These vessels tell tales of hardworking fishermen who braved unpredictable tides to bring home their bountiful catch. The ambiance exuded by this snapshot instantly transports us back to a simpler time when life revolved around close-knit communities and reliance on nature's gifts. It evokes feelings of nostalgia for a bygone era where simplicity reigned supreme. As we admire this historical treasure from STEAM Museum of GWR (Great Western Railway), let us appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also its ability to transport us into a different world - one filled with tranquility and authenticity that can still be found within Cornwall's charming fishing villages today.
