EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the picturesque coastal village of Porthallow, nestled within the enchanting landscapes of St Keverne, Cornwall. Immortalized on the 2nd of July in 1912 by the talented photographer Herbert Hughes, this view across the beach transports us to a simpler era. As we gaze upon this image, our eyes are immediately drawn to the boats gently bobbing on the tranquil sea. Their colorful sails add a vibrant touch against the backdrop of an idyllic fishing cove. The village itself peeks out from behind, with its charming houses and buildings standing proudly amidst nature's beauty. The foreground is adorned with rugged rocks that seem to guard this peaceful haven from any intrusion. These natural formations provide a sense of stability and permanence against the ever-changing tides. One cannot help but imagine life in this Cornish paradise over a century ago - perhaps fishermen hauling their bountiful catch ashore or children playing along these very shores. The Lizard Peninsula looms majestically in the distance, reminding us of Cornwall's rich maritime heritage and breathtaking coastal vistas. Herbert Hughes skillfully captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes emotions that transcend generations. This remarkable print serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate both the simplicity and grandeur of life by the sea in early 20th-century Cornwall.
