EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the charm and beauty of the historic harbor town of Fowey, Cornwall, as depicted in image A98_04376 by renowned photographer Eric de Mare. The image showcases a woman in a flowing skirt, walking leisurely down a narrow, cobblestone street, framed by the vibrant greenery of the town. In the background, the River Fowey glimmers in the sunlight, reflecting the pastel-colored buildings and the blue sky above. The almshouses, a testament to Fowey's rich history, can be seen on the right side of the street. These charitable institutions, which date back to the 15th and 16th centuries, provided shelter and support for the town's less fortunate residents. The intricate details of their stonework and the lush foliage surrounding them add to the overall allure of the scene. Dominating the skyline is the 14th-century St Fimbarrus Church tower. Named after the town's patron saint, this ancient place of worship stands proudly above the town, its age and history etched into every stone. The church, with its distinctive bell tower and ornate carvings, has been a landmark and spiritual center for the people of Fowey for centuries. Eric de Mare, an accomplished photographer known for his work documenting historic sites and landscapes, expertly captures the essence of Fowey in this timeless photograph. His composition invites the viewer to step into the scene, to wander the cobblestone streets, and to explore the hidden gems of this enchanting Cornish town.
