EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the early 1900s, we are transported back in time to the quaint coastal town of Padstow in Cornwall. The image showcases a picturesque scene at "The Stile" where two elegant ladies are seated on a rustic wooden stile beyond the north quay. As they enjoy their leisurely moment, the breathtaking estuary stretches out behind them, its tranquil waters reflecting the golden rays of sunlight. Looking towards Pentire, one cannot help but be mesmerized by the natural beauty that surrounds them. Towering cliffs rise majestically from the sea, creating an awe-inspiring backdrop for this idyllic setting. The rugged Cornish coastline is adorned with charming stone walls and gates that add character to this enchanting landscape. Part of the esteemed A. K. Hamilton Jenkin collection housed at Royal Cornwall Museum, this remarkable photograph captures not only a specific moment in history but also evokes a sense of nostalgia and wonderment for days gone by. Although taken by an unknown photographer, their talent shines through as they expertly frame this timeless scene. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost feel the salty breeze caressing our faces and hear seagulls calling overhead. It serves as a reminder of Cornwall's enduring allure – its rich heritage and stunning coastal vistas that continue to captivate visitors today.
