EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1903 transports us back in time to the charming Fish Street, nestled in the picturesque town of St Ives, Cornwall. The lens of photographer Herbert Hughes captures a scene that exudes Victorian elegance and rustic charm. In this snapshot frozen in history, our gaze is drawn towards an old doorway standing proudly amidst its surroundings. Its weathered wooden frame tells tales of countless footsteps passing through over the years. Above it, a small window peeks out from an attic space, hinting at hidden stories and forgotten memories locked away within. The cobbled road leading up to the doorstep seems worn by time and echoes with whispers of bustling activity that once filled these streets. On either side, quaint stone walls stand as silent witnesses to centuries gone by. The allure of this image lies not only in its architectural details but also in its Cornish essence. It encapsulates the unique character and rich heritage that define this coastal region - a place where fishing boats bobbed on turquoise waters just beyond sight. As we immerse ourselves in this historical moment captured on film, we are transported into a different era altogether. This photograph serves as a testament to the power of imagery; it allows us to connect with our past and appreciate how much has changed while cherishing what remains timeless about places like Fish Street in St Ives.
