EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the quaint village of Polperro, Cornwall, in the year 1927. The focal point of this monochrome image is the "Old Smugglers House" a weathered and aged cottage that stands as a testament to centuries past. Its dilapidated state tells a story of hardship and poverty that once plagued this picturesque location. The sepia tones add an air of nostalgia, transporting us to the roaring twenties when life was simpler yet filled with challenges. As we gaze upon this black and white scene, we can almost hear echoes of laughter and whispers from those who inhabited these old walls. Polperro itself holds a rich history as a notorious smuggling hub during the 18th century. This house serves as a reminder of its illicit past, where hidden passages and secret compartments were used by smugglers to transport contraband goods under cover of darkness. The print collector has expertly captured not just an architectural marvel but also evokes emotions tied to human struggle and resilience. It invites contemplation on how time changes landscapes while preserving their essence. As we admire this photograph, let's appreciate the beauty found within decay; for it reminds us that even in desolation there is still charm waiting to be discovered.
