EDITORS COMMENTS
Transported back in time to the picturesque coastal town of Looe, Cornwall, circa 1920. This print captures a serene view down river from the west end of Looe Bridge. The scene is adorned with charming elements that evoke a sense of nostalgia and tranquility. On the right side of the frame stands Julians Furnishing Warehouse, an iconic landmark that has witnessed generations come and go. Its presence adds a touch of character to this idyllic riverside setting. As we gaze further into the image, our eyes are drawn towards several men gracefully maneuvering their boats on the glistening water. Their rhythmic strokes create gentle ripples, reflecting the peaceful ambiance that permeates throughout. The Cornish charm is palpable as we take in every detail - from the weathered quay to intricately woven fishing nets hanging nearby. These remnants of a bygone era remind us of Cornwall's rich maritime heritage and its deep connection to its coastal surroundings. Captured by S. C. Fox, this timeless photograph invites us to immerse ourselves in an era where simplicity reigned supreme and nature was cherished above all else. It serves as a poignant reminder of how much has changed over time while also celebrating the enduring beauty and allure that Cornwall's harbors have offered for centuries
