EDITORS COMMENTS
. Transport yourself back to the enchanting Edwardian era with this print from the Royal Cornwall Museum. The image captures a breathtaking view of Retreat Rocks at Droskyn Point in Perranporth, Cornwall. As your eyes wander across the frame, you'll be drawn to an awe-inspiring natural arch that frames a picturesque rockpool nestled amidst the rugged coastline. But it's not just the stunning geological formations that steal the show; there is also a heartwarming scene unfolding on the sandy beach. A little girl with an adorable ribbon adorning her hair sits playfully by herself near the water's edge. Her innocent joy radiates as she engages in imaginative games and explores her surroundings. The photographer behind this timeless snapshot is none other than Herbert Hughes, who masterfully captured both nature's beauty and childhood innocence in one frame. With each glance at this print, you can almost feel the salty sea breeze caressing your face and hear waves gently crashing against shore. This evocative image serves as a reminder of simpler times when children reveled in outdoor adventures along Cornish coasts. It invites us to pause and appreciate both our natural wonders and cherished memories of carefree days spent by the seaside.
