EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a picturesque view of Perranporth, Perranzabuloe, Cornwall. From the vantage point of Cliff Road, we are treated to a stunning panorama that showcases both the promenade and the charming town nestled below. In the foreground of this image lie the tennis courts, serving as a reminder of leisurely activities enjoyed by locals and visitors alike during those days. The neatly lined courts hint at their popularity while inviting us to imagine lively matches played against the backdrop of breathtaking scenery. As our gaze extends beyond the tennis courts, we are greeted by an expansive sandy beach dotted with people enjoying its beauty. It is fascinating to observe how fashion has evolved over time; men donning suits and hats stroll alongside women elegantly dressed in long skirts and wide-brimmed hats. Their presence adds life and character to this historic snapshot. The photographer behind this remarkable piece is Arthur William Jordan, whose keen eye for detail effortlessly transports us into another era. Through his lens, we can almost feel the sea breeze on our faces as we immerse ourselves in this idyllic coastal scene. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this print serves as a precious window into Perranporth's past—a testament to its enduring charm throughout generations.
