EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from the early 1900s, we are transported to a sunny day on the picturesque coast of Cornwall. The Pope family has gathered at Droskyn in Perranporth for a delightful seaside picnic. Seated comfortably on the lush grass, they bask in the joyous atmosphere and breathtaking views that surround them. As our eyes wander through the scene, we notice a camera perched on a sturdy tripod behind them. It seems that someone had taken great care to capture this precious moment forever. Mr. Pope himself is pouring a refreshing drink while his children engage in an amusing activity nearby – building what appears to be a scarecrow! Their playful spirits fill the air with laughter and excitement. The attire of each family member adds character to this charming tableau. Mr. Pope dons an elegant sailor suit reminiscent of HMS Brisk's crew members who once sailed these very waters. The ladies' dresses exude timeless elegance, complemented by their stylish hats. Though the photographer remains unknown, their skillful composition immortalizes not only this particular gathering but also captures the essence of Cornish coastal life during that era. This remarkable photograph print offers us an enchanting glimpse into history—a cherished memory frozen in time—celebrating family bonds and treasured moments spent amidst Cornwall's natural beauty.
