EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Harbour, Mousehole, Cornwall. 1890" takes us back in time to a picturesque coastal village frozen in the late 19th century. The scene captures the essence of a bustling fishing harbor at low tide, with a cluster of weathered fishing boats resting on the exposed seabed. In the foreground, we see an intriguing sight: a man and woman perched comfortably on an upturned rowing boat that serves as their makeshift seat on the quay. Their presence adds a touch of human connection amidst the maritime activity unfolding around them. The hand-colored slide from Tour Through Cornwall series No 44 showcases remarkable attention to detail and craftsmanship. It transports us into this bygone era where vibrant hues bring life to every corner of this charming coastal landscape. As our gaze wanders through the image, we notice children playing nearby with baskets and nets - perhaps aspiring fishermen or simply enjoying their seaside playground. These young souls add an element of innocence and joy to this nostalgic scene. While it is unfortunate that history has left us unaware of who captured this mesmerizing moment in time, its significance lies not only in its aesthetic appeal but also in its ability to evoke curiosity about Cornish culture and traditions
