EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the picturesque village of Boscastle, Cornwall in 1902. The image captures a mesmerizing view from Vallency Valley, offering a unique perspective of the village nestled amidst its breathtaking surroundings. Taken by renowned photographer Herbert Hughes, this snapshot showcases his exceptional talent for capturing the essence and beauty of Cornwall. The scene unfolds before our eyes with an array of charming cornish buildings that dot the landscape. Each structure tells a story, reflecting the rich history and character of this coastal community. As we gaze further into the photograph, our attention is drawn towards the magnificent coastline stretching out beyond Boscastle's boundaries. The crashing waves against rugged cliffs remind us of nature's raw power and its harmonious coexistence with human habitation. A meandering river gracefully winds through this idyllic setting, adding another layer of tranquility to an already serene composition. It serves as a reminder that life here has always been intricately intertwined with waterways - providing sustenance and shaping both livelihoods and landscapes. Surrounding it all are rolling hills that embrace Boscastle like protective arms; their lush greenery contrasting beautifully against the vibrant blue sky above. This harmonious blend between man-made structures and natural elements epitomizes Cornwall's timeless allure. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's archives, this print allows us to step back into history while marveling at how much has changed over time – yet also recognizing how some things remain eternal in their beauty.
