EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s takes us back in time to the quaint town of Padstow, Cornwall. The focal point is the magnificent Customs House, standing proudly against a backdrop of clear blue skies and rolling hills. This image captures a moment before the construction of the quay, showcasing an untouched beach that stretches out towards the horizon. In this snapshot of history, we witness small children gleefully playing by the waterside, their laughter echoing through time. Their innocence juxtaposes with two men diligently digging clay or sand from the shoreline nearby. These hardworking individuals contribute to Padstow's rich heritage as they extract vital resources from nature's bounty. The photographer behind this remarkable piece remains unknown, but their skill in capturing both people and architecture is evident. Through their lens, we are transported to an era where simplicity reigned supreme and life unfolded at a slower pace. As we gaze upon this print displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, our imagination runs wild with stories untold. We can almost feel the salty breeze on our faces and hear echoes of conversations carried by gentle waves crashing onto shorelines long gone. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how landscapes change over time while preserving cherished memories for generations to come.
