EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1912 transports us back to the serene beauty of Helford Creek in Cornwall. The image captures a moment at low tide, where the entrance to the creek reveals its hidden treasures. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, our eyes are immediately drawn to a majestic topsail schooner gracefully sailing off the estuary. Its billowing sails catch the gentle breeze, adding an air of elegance and adventure to this rural scene. In the distance, we can make out Helford Passage, nestled amidst lush greenery and rolling hills. The tranquil waters of the river reflect a peaceful ambiance that is characteristic of Cornwall's idyllic countryside. A rowboat gently floats nearby, seemingly undisturbed by any worldly concerns. The photographer behind this remarkable composition is Herbert Hughes, whose lens skillfully captured not only nature's splendor but also evoked a sense of nostalgia for Edwardian times. This photograph serves as a testament to his artistry and his ability to transport viewers through time with just one click. As we admire this vintage print displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, it reminds us of simpler days when ships sailed these waters freely and life moved at a slower pace. It invites us to immerse ourselves in Cornwall's rich maritime history while appreciating its unspoiled natural beauty—a true treasure preserved within this single frame.
