EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the late 19th century with this vintage lantern slide capturing Newlyn Quay during the bustling mackerel season. The image transports you to a bygone era, where fishing boats line the harbor and fishermen work tirelessly to bring in their catch. The Victorian charm of Newlyn Quay is evident in every detail, from the quaint buildings along the waterfront to the traditional fishing vessels bobbing in the water. The scene is alive with activity as locals go about their daily routines against a backdrop of stunning coastal scenery. As you study this snapshot of history, you can almost feel the salt spray on your face and hear the cries of seagulls overhead. It's a glimpse into a simpler time when life revolved around the rhythms of nature and hard work was rewarded with bountiful harvests from the sea. This print from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection captures not just a moment in time, but an entire way of life that has since faded into memory. It serves as a reminder of our connection to the past and offers a window into an era when communities like Newlyn thrived on industry and tradition. Whether you have personal ties to Cornwall or simply appreciate historical photography, this image is sure to evoke nostalgia for days gone by. Let it transport you back to a time when mackerel season meant more than just fish – it was a way of life.
