EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Beacon Cove in Newquay, Cornwall, in the year 1927. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly The Headland hotel, an architectural gem that first opened its doors to guests in 1900. This grand establishment later gained fame as the filming location for the adaptation of Roald Dahl's beloved book, "The Witches" released in 1987. As we gaze upon this sepia-toned scene, we are transported to a bygone era. The rugged coastline and imposing cliffs frame the picture-perfect cove with its rocky shores. It is a testament to the enduring beauty of England's coastal geography. In this monochrome snapshot from the twenties, we can almost feel the cool sea breeze and hear the crashing waves against the rocks below. The Headland hotel stands proudly on the mainland, exuding timeless elegance and charm. This photograph captures not only a specific moment but also reflects an entire century's worth of history. With its black and white aesthetic reminiscent of early 20th-century photography techniques, it serves as a visual time capsule. Preserved by The Print Collector and now available for all to admire, this image showcases both natural wonders and man-made marvels harmoniously coexisting along Cornwall's enchanting coastline. Let it transport you back to a simpler time when Beacon Cove was at its most picturesque – an everlasting tribute to both nature's splendor and human ingenuity.
