EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a mesmerizing view of the fishing fleet departing from St Ives harbour in Lelant, Cornwall. The image showcases a bustling scene as various boats set sail, their sails unfurled and ready to catch the wind. However, what truly stands out is the ingenious use of large oars or sweeps by some vessels to propel themselves away from the shore before harnessing the power of nature's gusts. The photographer remains unknown, but their skillful composition transports us to this historic moment with remarkable clarity. It is likely that this snapshot was taken from Carbis Bay area, allowing for an expansive view encompassing both land and sea. Cornish coastal life has long revolved around its thriving fishing industry, and this photograph beautifully encapsulates that connection. The sight of these sturdy boats embarking on their daily journey evokes a sense of admiration for those who relied on these waters for their livelihoods. As we gaze upon this timeless image captured over a century ago at St Ives harbour, we are reminded of Cornwall's rich maritime heritage and its enduring relationship with the sea. This print serves as a poignant reminder of an era when fishermen braved unpredictable tides and weather conditions in pursuit of sustenance for their communities.
