EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the quaint coastal town of Lynmouth in North Devon, circa 1924. The image beautifully captures a serene moment on the quayside, where the bustling activity of sailors and fishermen unfolds before our eyes. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are transported to an era when sailing and fishing boats were at the heart of this charming harbor. The pier stretches out into the glistening waters, its weathered planks standing as a testament to years of maritime endeavors. Alongside it, numerous vessels bob gently on the waves - their sails billowing gracefully or perhaps laden with fresh catches from a fruitful day at sea. In this idyllic scene, one can almost feel the salty breeze brushing against their cheeks and hear seagulls calling overhead. The charm of Lynmouth's quayside is undeniable; it exudes both tranquility and purposefulness simultaneously. As we admire this vintage photograph captured by an unknown artist, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its historical significance. It serves as a window into a time when life revolved around these shores – where hardworking individuals relied on these boats for their livelihoods and connected communities through trade and exploration. Preserved within STEAM Museum of GWR's collection, this print offers us an opportunity to reflect upon our rich maritime heritage while marveling at the timeless beauty that graced Lynmouth Pier over nine decades ago.
