EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Entrance to Fowey Harbour, 1898" takes us back in time to the enchanting coastal town of Fowey in Cornwall, England. The image is an engraving featured in the book "Our Own Country, Volume I" published by Cassell and Company Ltd. in 1898. The scene depicts a stormy day at sea as sailing ships navigate their way through the treacherous waters towards the entrance of Fowey Harbour. The atmosphere captured in this nineteenth-century artwork is truly atmospheric, evoking a sense of adventure and awe-inspiring beauty. The unknown creator skillfully portrays the ruggedness of the headland against which these majestic ships sail. The composition showcases both the power of nature and man's determination to conquer it through water transport. As we gaze upon this historical gem, we are transported not only to a specific location but also into a different era altogether. It serves as a reminder of Britain's rich maritime heritage and its close connection with literature that often romanticized such scenes. This print from Heritage Images allows us to appreciate not only the artistic value but also offers glimpses into transportation methods prevalent during that period. It stands as a testament to human resilience against challenging weather conditions while showcasing Cornwall's scenic beauty for all generations to admire.
