EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR transports us back to a serene summer day in August 1928. The image showcases the breathtaking beauty of Porthcurno, a hidden gem nestled on the southern tip of Cornwall's coastline. As we gaze upon this scene, our eyes are immediately drawn to the magnificent beach and its golden sands stretching out before us. The rugged cliffs that frame this picturesque bay add an element of drama and grandeur to the landscape. Their weathered faces stand as silent witnesses to centuries of natural forces shaping this remarkable coastline. Towering above, they offer a sense of protection and seclusion for those seeking solace amidst nature's wonders. The crystal-clear waters gently lap against the rocks scattered along the shore, creating a soothing symphony that harmonizes with distant seagull cries. It is impossible not to feel a deep connection with both land and sea in this idyllic setting. As we immerse ourselves in this snapshot from another era, we can almost feel warm sand between our toes and taste salty air on our lips. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes emotions tied to endless summers spent exploring hidden coves and basking under clear blue skies. In preserving such treasures, museums like STEAM allow us to relish these glimpses into history while reminding us of nature's timeless allure.
