EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enchanting scene of Marazion and St Michael's Mount in Cornwall, as seen through the eyes of photographer John Gay in 1950. The image invites us to step back in time, as we gaze upon the quaint roofs of Marazion, their slates weathered by the elements and time, leading our gaze to the iconic landmark of St Michael's Mount in the distance. The mount, an ancient castle and subtropical gardens sitting atop a tidal island, stands proudly against the backdrop of the Cornish coast. The tranquil waters of the English Channel gently lap at the shores, creating a sense of peace and serenity. The photograph was taken during John Gay's holiday to Cornwall, a place that clearly left a lasting impression on him. The image is a testament to the timeless beauty of this historic and picturesque town, and serves as a reminder of the simple pleasures of a bygone era.
