EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s transports us back in time to Newquay Harbour, a picturesque coastal town nestled in Cornwall. The image showcases the north side of the harbor, with charming houses perched above. As our gaze moves towards the foreground, we are greeted by a magnificent sailing boat gracefully gliding through the calm waters. On board, adults and children alike dangle their feet over the side, relishing in the joyous freedom that only being at sea can bring. The scene is further animated by several smaller boats dotting the horizon, each one adding its own touch of color and character to this vibrant maritime tableau. In the distance, fishing boats bob gently on gentle waves as they prepare for their next voyage into Cornish waters. Though captured by an unknown photographer, this snapshot perfectly encapsulates both the tranquility and vitality that define life in Newquay Harbor during this era. It serves as a timeless reminder of how integral sailing and fishing were to this coastal community's identity. As we admire this historical gem preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, it sparks our imagination about what daily life must have been like for those who called Newquay home all those years ago – a testament to both human resilience and nature's enduring beauty along Cornwall's stunning coastline.
