EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1900, we are transported back in time to witness the laborious efforts of three men as they construct a Cornish Mow (rick) in a picturesque field overlooking a serene Cornish estuary. The scene is beautifully captured by an unknown photographer, who skillfully frames the image to showcase both the hard work and tranquil surroundings. As these determined men meticulously stack hay bales upon one another, their weathered faces reveal years of dedication to their craft. Each movement is executed with precision and strength, showcasing the resilience required for such demanding manual labor during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Meanwhile, nestled amongst them lies a contented dog taking respite from the day's exertions. Its relaxed posture serves as a reminder that even amidst arduous tasks, moments of tranquility can be found. The location appears to be on Rock side of the Camel estuary, offering breathtaking views across the Camel river towards Padstow's railway line—a testament to Cornwall's rich industrial heritage. This snapshot encapsulates not only farming practices but also provides insight into transportation methods prevalent at that time. This remarkable print evokes nostalgia for simpler times when agriculture played an integral role in shaping communities. It serves as a poignant reminder of our ancestors' unwavering commitment to harvesting nature's bounty while finding solace within its timeless beauty.
