EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the charming coastal town of Scarborough in North Yorkshire, circa 1959. The image beautifully captures the essence of this maritime haven, with a cluster of fishing boats serenely moored in the old harbour. As we gaze towards the town, our eyes are drawn to the majestic castle perched atop the hill, its imposing presence dominating the landscape. Hallam Ashley's skilled photography skillfully encapsulates both the tranquility and liveliness that coexist within this bustling harbor. The stillness of the water mirrors a sense of calmness while hinting at countless seafaring adventures yet to unfold. Each boat tells its own story - tales of brave fishermen venturing into treacherous waters in pursuit of their livelihoods. The composition is masterful, expertly framing every element within its borders: from weathered wooden hulls and tangled nets to distant rooftops nestled against rolling hills. This snapshot offers an intimate glimpse into Scarborough's rich history as a thriving fishing community where life revolved around these very waters. As we admire this remarkable piece by Hallam Ashley, it serves as a poignant reminder that time may have passed but some things endure – Scarborough's enduring charm continues to captivate visitors today just as it did over half a century ago when this photograph was taken.
