EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR takes us back to a picturesque summer day in July 1923, capturing the timeless beauty of Coverack, Cornwall. As we gaze upon this stunning view of the village, it's hard not to be mesmerized by the tranquility that surrounds it. The crystal-clear water in the bay resembles a mirror, perfectly reflecting some charming cottages perched on the hillside. The sun-kissed rooftops and vibrant gardens add a touch of color to this idyllic scene. It's as if time stands still in this peaceful corner of Cornwall. In the distance, our eyes are drawn towards a majestic tall ship gracefully sailing across the horizon. Its billowing sails catch every breeze as it ventures into open waters, reminding us of an era when such vessels were essential for trade and exploration. Closer to shore, we spot a small fishing craft gently bobbing in the calm bay. Perhaps local fishermen have set out early that morning or returned with their bountiful catch for all to enjoy later at dinner tables throughout Coverack. This print captures more than just an image; it encapsulates an entire atmosphere – one filled with serenity and natural beauty. It transports us back almost a century ago when life was simpler and communities like Coverack thrived on close connections with both land and sea. As we admire this snapshot from history, let's appreciate how places like Coverack continue to captivate our hearts through their enduring charm
