EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the early 1900s by the talented photographer John Charles Burrow, this print showcases the majestic Bishop Rock in Rinsey, Breage, Cornwall. The rugged beauty of the Cornish coast is on full display as we gaze upon this timeless image. Standing proudly against crashing waves and a dramatic sky, Bishop Rock stands tall with its imposing presence. In this particular shot, our attention is drawn to a man seated on the cliff's edge, his figure silhouetted against the vastness of the sea. Dressed in traditional Victorian attire, he seems lost in contemplation as he gazes out towards the horizon. Perhaps he seeks solace or finds inspiration amidst nature's grandeur. The photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers us a glimpse into life during that era. The man's clothing reflects an elegant fashion sense prevalent during Victorian times while reminding us of how people would often seek refuge along these breathtaking coastal cliffs. This remarkable print from Royal Cornwall Museum transports us back to an era when simplicity and natural beauty were highly valued. It serves as a reminder of our deep connection with nature and how it has always been an endless source of wonder and inspiration for humanity throughout history.
