EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1908 transports us back in time to the picturesque Pentreath Beach, nestled within the enchanting Landewednack village in Cornwall. The Victorian era charm is palpable as we gaze upon this coastal masterpiece captured by the talented photographer Herbert Hughes. The image showcases a breathtaking view of rugged rocks gracefully emerging from the crystal-clear sea waters, creating an awe-inspiring sight that has stood the test of time. As our eyes wander towards the horizon, we are greeted by Old Lizard Head, a prominent landmark on The Lizard Peninsula. Its stoic presence adds a touch of grandeur to this already magnificent scene. One cannot help but be mesmerized by the rolling waves crashing against these ancient rocks, their rhythmic motion evoking a sense of tranquility and power simultaneously. It is as if nature itself has choreographed this symphony between land and sea for our viewing pleasure. This print serves as both a nostalgic reminder of days gone by and an invitation to explore Cornwall's timeless beauty. It captures not only the raw magnificence of its coastal landscapes but also offers glimpses into Victorian life along these shores. Preserved with care at Royal Cornwall Museum, this piece allows us to immerse ourselves in history while appreciating Cornwall's enduring allure – its dramatic cliffs, pristine beaches, and rich maritime heritage that continue to captivate visitors even today.
