EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from July 1925 transports us back in time to the picturesque Lower town and Vallency Valley in Boscastle, Cornwall. Taken by the talented photographer Herbert Hughes, this image offers a unique perspective as it was captured from above the charming harbour. The Cornish essence is beautifully showcased through a harmonious blend of natural beauty and architectural marvels. The rugged coastline stretches out majestically, its cliffs standing tall against the crashing waves below. The river meanders gracefully through the valley, reflecting sunlight like a shimmering ribbon amidst lush green hills. In this snapshot frozen in time, we can admire the quaint buildings that dot Lower town's landscape. These traditional Cornish structures stand proudly with their slate roofs and whitewashed walls, adding character to an already enchanting scene. Each building seems to tell its own story of generations past who have called this place home. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph print at Royal Cornwall Museum, our imagination takes flight. We envision bustling streets filled with locals going about their daily lives - fishermen returning from sea with their catch of the day or villagers exchanging friendly greetings on narrow cobblestone lanes. This image serves as a testament to both Cornwall's timeless allure and Herbert Hughes' artistic prowess behind the lens. It captures not only a moment but also evokes emotions of nostalgia for simpler times spent amidst nature's splendor and close-knit communities along Britain's stunning coastline.
