EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the essence of a bygone era, this stunning print takes us back to June 1906 in Rock, Cornwall. The image showcases a picturesque view of Rock looking down the estuary at low tide. On the foreshore, we see a bait digger diligently working with his fork and basket, collecting treasures from the sandy shores. To the right, a fishing boat rests peacefully with its sails down, waiting for its next adventure on the open waters. In the background, we catch glimpses of properties lining Rock Road, including the grand Rock Hotel standing proudly amidst its surroundings. These houses and villas add charm to this coastal landscape and provide an insight into life in early 20th-century Cornwall. The photographer behind this remarkable composition is none other than John Charles Burrow. His keen eye for detail has immortalized this moment in time when fishing was still an integral part of Cornish culture. This scene evokes feelings of tranquility as we immerse ourselves in nature's beauty along Cornwall's rugged coastline. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when communities thrived off their close connection to both land and sea
