EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless charm of "The Noahs Ark on Fore Street" in Fowey, Cornwall, around 1910. Standing proudly amidst a bustling street scene, this historic building claims its rightful place as one of the oldest structures in town. Its weathered stone walls and traditional Cornish architecture exude an air of authenticity that transports us back to a bygone era. The photographer's identity may remain unknown, but their lens has captured a moment frozen in time. The image reveals a vibrant street teeming with life - pedestrians strolling along the cobblestone pavement while men go about their daily activities. Through its windows and doors, we catch glimpses into the past; perhaps some locals enjoying lively conversations or catching up on news from afar. The architectural details are noteworthy: ornate cornices adorning the top facade, sturdy wooden doors inviting visitors inside, and charmingly mismatched windows that hint at various renovations throughout history. This photograph serves as a testament to Fowey's rich heritage and enduring beauty. Preserved within the Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this print is not only an invaluable historical artifact but also an invitation for us to appreciate our roots and marvel at how much has changed over time. It allows us to connect with those who once walked these streets and reminds us of our shared human experience across generations.
