EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Eric de Mare showcases the picturesque St Ia's Church in St Ives, Cornwall. Taken between 1945 and 1980, it beautifully captures the east end of this early 15th-century church, with its stunning architectural details standing tall against the backdrop of a serene harbour. The image exudes a sense of tranquility as a small boat rests peacefully in the foreground. The composition is masterfully framed, highlighting both the maritime charm of St Ives and the timeless beauty of this historic place of worship. The church's stone walls are weathered by centuries gone by, telling stories that echo through time. Its elegant windows and intricate stonework reflect an era when craftsmanship was revered. Eric de Mare's keen eye for detail brings out every nuance in this photograph; from the gentle ripples on the water to each individual brick on St Ia's Church. It transports us back to an era where life moved at a slower pace - where boats were hauled ashore after a day at sea and parishioners sought solace within these sacred walls. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we can't help but be reminded of our connection to history and how places like St Ia's Church continue to inspire awe today. This print serves as both a testament to Eric de Mare's talent as a photographer and as an invitation for us all to appreciate the enduring beauty found within our heritage sites.
