EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the breathtaking view from a cliff overlooking the slipway and charming cottages nestled behind in Porthgwarra, Cornwall. Taken in the early 1900s by photographer T. H. Williams, it offers a glimpse into the rich fishing industry that once thrived in this coastal village. In the foreground, fishing boats rest on dry land near the top of the slipway, awaiting their next voyage to sea. Behind them, traditional fishing cottages dotting the landscape are surrounded by small enclosed fields, showcasing a close-knit community deeply connected to their maritime heritage. The photograph also reveals intriguing features of nature's artistry. To either side of the cove, we can spot both natural and semi-artificial caves carved into rocky cliffsides. These mysterious formations add an air of mystique to this picturesque scene. As we immerse ourselves in this snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but appreciate how Cornwall's rugged beauty has shaped its people and industries throughout history. This image serves as a testament to their resilience and resourcefulness while highlighting their harmonious coexistence with nature. With every detail captured flawlessly within this print from Royal Cornwall Museum, it transports us back to an era when life revolved around Cornish fishing traditions and celebrates a place where land meets sea in perfect harmony – Porthgwarra Cove.
