EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Royal Cornwall Museum, we are transported back in time to the mesmerizing Pordenack Point in Sennen, Cornwall. The year is believed to be 1903, and two adventurous souls named John Charles Burrow and Herbert Hughes stand confidently on the rugged cliff side. With a camera perched atop their trusty tripod, they prepare to capture a moment of sheer beauty. Cornwall's natural allure takes center stage as the image showcases its breathtaking coastal landscape. Towering cliffs adorned with wildflowers provide a dramatic backdrop against the crashing waves below. The rocky terrain exudes an untamed charm that has captivated artists and explorers for centuries. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, but their skill is evident in capturing this remarkable scene. Every detail is meticulously preserved - from the texture of each rock to the play of light on the water's surface. It serves as a testament to both their technical prowess and artistic vision. This photograph transports us beyond mere pixels; it immerses us in history itself. We can almost feel the salty breeze brushing against our faces as we join Burrow and Hughes on their daring expedition along these treacherous cliffs. As we gaze upon this timeless snapshot, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also recognize it as an invaluable piece of Cornish heritage – preserving memories that would otherwise have been lost to time's relentless march forward.
