EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the stunning landscape of Cornwall in 1897. The image showcases the breathtaking view of Lion Rock, a prominent feature within Kynance Cove, Landewednack. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era where nature's beauty remained untouched by modern developments. The composition is enhanced by the presence of renowned photographer John Charles Burrow himself, lying on the sandy beach. His inclusion not only adds a sense of scale but also provides a glimpse into the dedication and passion behind capturing such remarkable scenery. Photographer Herbert Hughes skillfully captures every intricate detail - from Lion Rock majestically rising above turquoise waters to the rugged cliffs that surround it. The play between light and shadow creates depth and texture, further accentuating the natural wonders before our eyes. Located on Cornwall's Lizard Peninsula, Kynance Cove has long been cherished for its unspoiled charm and dramatic coastal vistas. This photograph serves as a testament to its enduring allure throughout history. Preserved at Royal Cornwall Museum, this print invites us to appreciate both the artistry behind early photography techniques and Cornwall's timeless beauty. It reminds us that some landscapes remain eternally enchanting regardless of how much time passes or how rapidly society evolves around them.
