EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, showcasing the picturesque Victorian fishing village of Lynmouth, Devon, England. The image transports us to an era long past, with its quaint cottages, cobbled streets, and bustling quayside. Fishermen in traditional attire are seen mending their nets and preparing their boats for a day's catch. The air is filled with the pungent smell of fish and the sound of seagulls squawking overhead. In the foreground, a fishwife, dressed in her colorful apron and bonnet, expertly sorts and sells the day's catch to the villagers and passing visitors. The scene is set against the backdrop of the rugged Devonshire coastline, with its towering cliffs and crashing waves. The village's quaint harbor, with its dock and boats, is a hive of activity as fishermen load their catches onto the docks. Lantern slides like this one would have been used to project images onto a screen for entertainment and education during the Edwardian period. This vintage photograph is a testament to the rich history and tradition of fishing communities in Devon and beyond. It invites us to reflect on the simple pleasures of life and the beauty of the natural world. A true treasure from the past, this image is a must-have for anyone with an appreciation for history, photography, or the sea.
