EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this evocative image of St Ives harbour in Cornwall, England, circa 1900-1910. The photograph captures a bustling scene of traditional fishing boats and their hardworking crews, as they go about their daily business. The harbour is filled with a multitude of boats, each with its unique character, from the tall masts and sails of the larger vessels to the simple, unadorned boats of the smaller fishermen. The fishermen are seen in various stages of preparing their boats for a day at sea. Some are furling their sails, while others are untying ropes and loading their catch onto the quay. The air is filled with the salty scent of the sea and the sounds of seagulls calling in the distance. St Ives, a historic fishing village and popular resort town, has a rich maritime history. The town's location on the Atlantic coast made it an ideal place for fishing, and its natural harbour provided a safe haven for boats. The industry was a vital part of the local economy, providing livelihoods for generations of families. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the sea was the lifeblood of the community. It is a reminder of the importance of the fishing industry and the resilience of the people who made their living from the sea. The boats and fishermen in this image are not just objects of historical interest but are a testament to the enduring connection between people and the sea.
