EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the timeless beauty of Cornwall's River Fal, this vintage print transports us back to the early 1900s. With Tregothnan standing proudly in the background, its grandeur is only surpassed by the breathtaking view it overlooks. The calm waters of the river glisten under a gentle sun, inviting us to explore its depths and secrets. In the foreground, a man skillfully maneuvers his rowing boat through the tranquil waters. His presence adds a sense of scale and human connection to this picturesque scene. As we follow his gaze towards the horizon, our eyes are drawn to a majestic sailing ship gracefully gliding across the water. Its billowing sails catch every whisper of wind as it embarks on an unknown journey. The photographer behind this remarkable image is Arthur William Jordan, whose keen eye for detail has immortalized this moment in time. Through his lens, he captures not just a landscape but also an essence – one that speaks volumes about Cornwall's rich maritime history and enduring natural beauty. This photograph evokes feelings of serenity and nostalgia while reminding us of how integral rivers were for transportation in days gone by. It serves as both a window into history and an invitation to immerse ourselves in Cornwall's captivating landscapes once more - where land meets water with harmonious grace.
