EDITORS COMMENTS
Transporting us back in time to the early 1900s, this print showcases the picturesque St Ives Railway Station nestled in the heart of Cornwall. With its charming Cornish architecture and a touch of nostalgia, this historic gem stands as a testament to an era long gone. The photographer remains unknown, yet their skillful lens has beautifully captured the essence of this coastal town. From Porthminster beach, where this snapshot was taken, one can admire the magnificent sight of St Ives Railway Station against a backdrop of rolling waves and azure skies. As if frozen in time, a fleet of seine boats gracefully rest upon the sandy shores below; their presence adding an authentic touch to this idyllic scene. The Great Western Railway (GWR) played a significant role during that period, connecting remote corners like St Ives with bustling cities across England. This image serves as a reminder of how railways revolutionized transportation and brought communities closer together. While we may not know much about the photographer or their intentions behind capturing this moment, it is clear that they possessed both an artistic eye and appreciation for preserving history. This remarkable print now finds its place within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection - transporting viewers on a visual journey through time while evoking feelings of tranquility and admiration for our rich heritage.
