EDITORS COMMENTS
Transporting us back to the enchanting Victorian era, this print captures the timeless beauty of Pengersick Castle in Breage, Cornwall. Taken around the 1880s by an unknown photographer, it offers a glimpse into a bygone era where elegance and grandeur reigned supreme. The majestic castle stands proudly against the backdrop of Praa Sands, its weathered stone walls echoing tales of centuries past. As we peer through time's window, a group of adults and children gather at the entrance, their presence adding life and vitality to this historic scene. Cloaked in traditional Cornish attire, each figure exudes grace and charm. The women don exquisite dresses adorned with intricate lacework and delicate bonnets that shield them from the sun's gentle rays. Meanwhile, men sport dapper suits complete with top hats—a testament to their refined taste. This photograph is not merely a commercial commodity; rather it serves as a portal into history—allowing us to immerse ourselves in an era defined by cultural richness and societal customs long forgotten. It reminds us that beneath these ancient stones lie countless stories waiting to be discovered. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this remarkable image invites us on a journey through time—an invitation we gladly accept as we marvel at Pengersick Castle's enduring allure.
