EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a pilot cobble being towed through the tranquil waters of a Victorian or Edwardian era estuary. The pilot cobble, a small boat traditionally used to transport pilots to larger vessels, adds a quintessential touch to this nostalgic scene. In this photograph, taken in 1907, the cobble is being towed by a larger boat, its stern rope secured to the towline. The crew on the larger boat, dressed in period attire, skillfully navigate the waters, their lanterns aglow to light the way. The lanterns, a common sight in the days before electric lighting, add an intriguing element to the image, casting an ethereal glow on the water's surface. The boats, with their wooden hulls and sails, are reminiscent of a bygone era, evoking a sense of simplicity and connection to nature. The calm, reflective waters mirror the clear blue sky above, creating a serene and picturesque setting. This vintage photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when life moved at a slower pace and the natural world held a greater allure. It is a reminder of the beauty and simplicity of the past, and a testament to the enduring appeal of the sea and its rich maritime history.
