EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Bernard Alfieri takes us back to a simpler time, capturing the essence of a close-knit fishing community in the idyllic village of Polperro. In this snapshot from the late 1920s, we are transported to a bustling harbor where weathered men with lined faces and calloused hands gather together. These seasoned fishermen, who have dedicated their lives to the sea, stand as proud symbols of an industry that has sustained generations before them. Their presence evokes a sense of camaraderie and shared wisdom acquired through years spent battling unpredictable tides and braving stormy waters. The image portrays not only their resilience but also their deep connection to this picturesque coastal village. As they exchange stories and laughter amidst stacks of fishing nets and weather-worn boats, one can almost hear echoes of past adventures echoing through time. Bernard Alfieri's lens captures every detail with remarkable clarity – from the intricate lines etched on each face to the timeless charm exuded by these elderly pensioners. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how communities like Polperro thrived on industries such as fishing during an era when life was simpler yet filled with challenges. As we gaze upon this stunning visual testament to history, we are reminded that behind every quaint village lies untold tales woven into its very fabric – stories waiting patiently for someone like Bernard Alfieri to capture them
