EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the late 19th century takes us back in time to Perranporth, a picturesque coastal town in Cornwall. The image showcases the magnificent Arch Rock and Chapel Rock, two iconic natural formations that have stood the test of time against the relentless power of the sea. In this scene, we witness Perranporth Beach at its most serene. The golden sand stretches out as far as the eye can see, inviting visitors to take leisurely strolls along its shore. Three seine boats gently bob on the calm waters, their presence a testament to the rich fishing heritage of this region. A young boy stands on the right side of our frame, his figure adding a sense of scale and innocence amidst nature's grandeur. It is easy to imagine him marveling at these majestic rock formations with wide-eyed wonder. The photographer behind this remarkable shot is Frederick Ernest Argall, whose keen eye for detail has allowed us to glimpse into Cornwall's past. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to an era when life was simpler and nature reigned supreme. As we admire this beautiful print from Royal Cornwall Museum today, let it serve as a reminder of both our connection with history and our responsibility towards preserving such breathtaking landscapes for future generations to enjoy.
