EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the early 1900s, offering a panoramic view of the picturesque Porthminster Point in St Ives, Cornwall. Taken from the vantage point of a church tower, this remarkable image captures the essence and charm of this coastal town. As we gaze upon this historic scene, our eyes are immediately drawn to the bustling harbor below. The water glistens under the warm sunlight as fishing boats gracefully glide across its surface. Seagulls soar above, adding an air of tranquility to the busy maritime activities. The quaint town unfolds before us with its narrow streets lined by charming cottages and shops. It is evident that time has left its mark on these buildings, each one telling a unique story of life in St Ives during that era. The distant sound of laughter and chatter can almost be heard as people go about their daily routines. Porthminster Point stands majestically in the background, overlooking it all like a silent guardian. Its rugged cliffs provide a stunning backdrop against which nature's beauty flourishes - vibrant wildflowers dotting the landscape and waves crashing against weathered rocks. Edward Ashton's skillful eye has captured not only an exquisite moment frozen in time but also immortalized Cornwall's rich heritage for generations to come. This print serves as a testament to both his talent as a photographer and his deep appreciation for capturing Cornwall's natural splendor. Displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, this photograph allows visitors to step into history and experience firsthand
