EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the charming village of Polperro in Cornwall during the 1860s-1870s. The image, captured from Osprey Cottage, offers a picturesque view of the southern end of the village. On the western side, rows of quaint houses stand proudly against the backdrop of rugged cliffs and rolling hills. The path leading towards Chapel Rock, also known as Peak Rock, meanders through this idyllic coastal setting. It invites locals and visitors alike to explore its hidden treasures while enjoying breathtaking views of the sea. The photograph is part of "The History of Polperro" manuscript by Thomas Q. Couch (1878), which built upon Jonathan Couch's earlier work published in 1871. Photographer Lewis Harding skillfully captures not only the physical beauty but also provides a glimpse into daily life during this era. Intriguingly, we can observe people going about their day dressed in period costumes and clothing that reflect fashion trends prevalent at that time. Their presence adds depth and human interest to an already mesmerizing scene. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, we are transported back to a simpler time when life revolved around close-knit communities nestled along Cornwall's stunning coastline.
