EDITORS COMMENTS
In the quaint and picturesque town of St Ives, Cornwall, during the autumn of 1948, Harry Rountree, a talented and dedicated artist, was immersed in his creative world. The October issue of an illustrated magazine captured this moment of inspiration, offering a glimpse into Rountree's studio and his artistic process. The photograph, taken by Terry Parker, reveals Rountree deep in concentration as he stands before his easel, palette in hand, and a brush poised above a canvas. The room is filled with the warm, natural light that St Ives is famous for, casting long shadows and highlighting the artist's tools and materials. A bird perched on a windowsill adds a touch of whimsy to the scene, reminding us of the connection between nature and art. Rountree's studio was a sanctuary, a place where he could escape the pressures of the post-war world and lose himself in his art. The 1940s were a time of great change and uncertainty, but for Rountree, painting provided a sense of stability and purpose. His work reflected the beauty and simplicity of the Cornish landscape, capturing the essence of the region and its people. The photograph of Harry Rountree in his studio is a poignant reminder of the power of art to transport us to another time and place. It invites us to appreciate the beauty of the creative process and the dedication of the artist, even as we marvel at the stunning natural surroundings of St Ives, Cornwall.
