EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 1900s with this print of Custom House Hill, Fowey, Cornwall. Transport yourself to a bygone era as you gaze upon the charming scene captured by an unknown photographer. The image showcases a picturesque view up Custom House Hill, where history and everyday life intertwine seamlessly. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a bustling street filled with cornish buildings that exude character and charm. Men wearing flat caps and hats can be spotted going about their daily routines while women gracefully navigate the cobbled streets pushing a pushchair. A stationary horse and cart add an authentic touch to the scene, reminding us of simpler times when horsepower ruled the roads. The attention to detail is remarkable - from the intricate railings lining the path to the inviting doorways beckoning passersby inside these historic structures. Each element tells its own story, painting a vivid picture of life in Fowey during this era. This print captures not only architectural beauty but also offers glimpses into the lives of ordinary people who once walked these very streets. It serves as both a window into our past and a testament to our shared heritage. Displaying this extraordinary piece in your home or office will transport you back through time, evoking nostalgia for days gone by. Let it serve as a reminder of Cornwall's rich history and enduring charm.
