EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from June 1906 takes us back in time to the charming village of Port Isaac, Cornwall. Standing proudly amidst the picturesque coastal backdrop is The Dolphin Inn, a beloved establishment owned by Robert Horwill. The weathered sign on its wall proudly declares his license to brew and sell an array of beverages including beer, porter, cider, as well as both foreign and British spirits. It even mentions the availability of wine and tobacco for those seeking indulgence. As we delve deeper into this snapshot of history, our attention shifts to the vibrant street scene unfolding before us. Children playfully roam the cobbled streets with carefree abandon while a boy engages in jovial companionship with his loyal canine friend. Their laughter fills the air, echoing through time like a joyful melody. Intriguingly juxtaposed against this lively atmosphere is evidence of everyday life - clotheslines adorned with freshly washed garments gently sway in the breeze above them. This glimpse into domesticity reminds us that even amidst bustling activity, there are moments dedicated to tending to life's simplest tasks. The photographer behind this remarkable image is Herbert Hughes who skillfully captured not only a moment frozen in time but also an essence that transcends generations. Through this photograph print housed within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, we are transported back over a century ago to witness firsthand the idyllic charm and timeless allure of Port Isaac's Dolphin Inn and its surrounding community.
