EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the early 1900s, this print showcases a panoramic view of St Ives harbour in Cornwall. The bustling scene comes to life as fishing boat 115 SS gracefully departs from the harbor, leaving behind a trail of anticipation and adventure. The skilled photographer behind this remarkable shot is believed to be Edward Ashton. The charm of Cornwall emanates from every corner of this image. The picturesque harbor, with its quaint buildings nestled along the shoreline, exudes an old-world charm that transports us back in time. The towering cliffs provide a dramatic backdrop against which the vibrant blue waters shimmer under the warm sunlight. Cornish culture is deeply intertwined with sailing and seafaring traditions, evident through the numerous boats dotting the harbor's surface. These vessels stand as proud symbols of resilience and hard work for generations of fishermen who have braved these waters in search of their livelihoods. This print serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate not only the beauty but also understand how crucial maritime activities were for coastal communities like St Ives during that era. It captures a moment frozen in time—a testament to both human ingenuity and nature's awe-inspiring grandeur. Displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, this photograph invites visitors to immerse themselves in an era long gone while paying homage to those who shaped it through their tireless efforts on land and sea alike.
