EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the rugged coast of Cornwall in February 1924. Standing proudly against the backdrop of crashing waves, we are presented with the magnificent Logan Rock near Treen. This natural wonder, weighing an astonishing 65 tons, appears delicately balanced on its perch, defying gravity itself. But it is not only its impressive weightlessness that draws visitors from far and wide to this remote corner of Cornwall. The Logan Rock holds within its ancient stones a local legend that has been passed down through generations. Whispers speak of giants who once roamed these lands, their immense strength shaping the landscape around them. It is said that one giant placed this colossal rock so precariously upon another as a testament to his might. As we gaze upon this photograph, taken by GWR for publicity purposes, we cannot help but be transported back in time to witness the awe-inspiring beauty of nature's creations. The jagged coastline stretches out before our eyes while the salty sea air fills our lungs. Cornwall's Logan Rock stands as a symbol of both geological marvel and human fascination with legends untold. Its magnetic pull continues to attract curious souls seeking solace amidst nature's wonders or simply yearning for a glimpse into history's mysteries. Step into this snapshot from 1924 and let your imagination soar along with those early tourists who ventured here long ago – captivated by tales whispered among coastal cliffs and enchanted by the timeless allure of Logan Rock.
