EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1900 showcases the timeless beauty of Baileys Lane in St Ives, Cornwall. Stepping into this Victorian-era fishing village feels like entering a bygone era, where cobbled streets and charming cottages transport you to a simpler time. In this particular image, we are greeted with a view down Baileys Lane. The worn cobblestones tell stories of countless footsteps that have tread upon them over the years. As our eyes wander up the lane, we see four curious boys gazing towards the photographer, their youthful innocence captured forever in this frozen moment. Amidst the nostalgic scene, a blurred figure of a woman walks away from us down the lane. Her presence adds an air of mystery and intrigue to this already enchanting photograph. Who is she? Where is she headed? These questions remain unanswered as her identity remains unknown. The composition exudes tranquility and serenity; it encapsulates the essence of life in a Cornish fishing village during that era. The quaint cottages lining both sides of Baileys Lane stand as witnesses to generations past - sturdy structures weathered by time yet still standing strong. This print serves as an exquisite window into history - an invitation for us to immerse ourselves in Cornwall's rich heritage and imagine what life was like for those who once called these picturesque cottages home.
