This stunning vintage print captures the essence of Cornwall's timeless beauty, inviting viewers to embark on a journey back in time.

Wootton (1914-1998), transports us to a picturesque harbour scene that exudes tranquility and charm. As we gaze upon the print, our eyes are immediately drawn to the bustling harbor filled with an array of boats gently bobbing on the water's surface. Surrounding this maritime hub are quaint cottages nestled amidst rolling hills, their colorful facades adding vibrancy to the idyllic village setting.
