EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in a timeless moment, this vintage print showcases the majestic SS Treleigh of Penzance at East Looe Quay in Cornwall, circa 1895. A true testament to Victorian maritime engineering and craftsmanship, the Treleigh was a remarkable steel screw dandy vessel built with precision by J. P. Renoldson & Sons of South Shields. Owned by D. W. Bain & Co from Penzance, the SS Treleigh exuded elegance and power as it gracefully rested against the quay's edge. Its sloop rigging and distinctive jigger-mast added an extra touch of nautical charm to its already impressive silhouette. Surgeon Captain John Campbell skillfully captured this historic moment through his lens, immortalizing not just a ship but also an era defined by Cornish sailing prowess. The photograph transports us back to a time when these magnificent vessels dominated the seas surrounding Cornwall's rugged coastline. As we admire this snapshot from history, let us appreciate both the artistry behind Surgeon Captain Campbell's photography and the enduring legacy of ships like the SS Treleigh. This image serves as a reminder of our rich maritime heritage and evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler times when sail-powered vessels ruled our oceans.
