EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1894 showcases the picturesque village of Coverack, nestled in the heart of St Keverne, Cornwall. The image captures a timeless scene as a horse-drawn cart gracefully makes its way up the road leading to the village. Photographer Herbert Hughes skillfully frames this moment, allowing us to glimpse into an era long gone. The charm of this coastal village is evident in every detail captured by Hughes' lens. The rugged Cornish landscape serves as a breathtaking backdrop, with rolling hills meeting the sparkling sea on one side and quaint cottages dotting the other. Boats gently sway in harmony with the tides along the shore, adding to Coverack's idyllic atmosphere. Transported back to Victorian times through this photograph, we can almost hear the clip-clop of hooves on cobblestone roads and feel a gentle breeze carrying scents of saltwater and fresh blooms from nearby gardens. It offers a glimpse into daily life during that era when horses were still relied upon for transportation. As we admire this historical gem preserved by Royal Cornwall Museum, it reminds us of how much has changed over time while also highlighting what remains constant - our deep connection to nature and community. This print encapsulates both nostalgia for simpler times and appreciation for Cornwall's enduring beauty – an exquisite blend that continues to captivate visitors even today.
