EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to Sennen Cove, Cornwall, in the year 1903. The image beautifully captures a moment of tranquility and simplicity amidst the rugged coastal landscape. In the foreground stands a woman, her figure gracefully framed by a charming thatched cottage. Her presence exudes an air of quiet contentment as she gazes out towards the vast expanse of the Cornish sea. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is Herbert Hughes, whose keen eye for detail has immortalized this slice of history. Through his lens, we are transported to an era where life was intimately intertwined with nature's elements - where hats were donned not only for fashion but also practicality against the coastal winds. The thatched roof atop the cottage serves as a reminder of Cornwall's architectural heritage and its harmonious blend with its natural surroundings. It stands resilient against time and weathered by countless storms that have shaped this picturesque coastline. As we delve into this photograph, it becomes clear that it encapsulates more than just a moment frozen in time; it embodies an entire way of life - one deeply connected to both land and sea. This evocative image invites us to reflect on our own relationship with nature and appreciate how these timeless scenes continue to inspire generations even today
