EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1904 takes us back in time to the bustling Quay of Penryn, Cornwall. The picturesque scene showcases a vibrant harbor filled with an array of ships and boats, each telling its own story. In the middle distance, we can see the sturdy granite works quay, where the ketch Hobah proudly rests alongside it. This vessel was not only built at Mylor but also owned by locals in Penryn, adding a touch of community pride to this maritime setting. In the foreground, an unidentified schooner gracefully unloads its cargo onto the busy dock. One can only imagine what treasures or supplies are being transported on this day - perhaps goods from distant lands or provisions for local businesses. The activity surrounding this ship is a testament to the importance of trade and commerce that thrived within these historic walls. Photographed by Arthur Philp, his keen eye captures every detail with precision and artistry. His work allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of this Edwardian era snapshot but also provides valuable insights into Cornish history and culture. As we gaze upon this remarkable image preserved by Royal Cornwall Museum, we are transported back in time; feeling as if we were standing on that very quay over a century ago – witnessing firsthand the energy and vitality that once permeated through these waters.
