EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing the picturesque village of Cawsand from a southern perspective. Nestled on the stunning Rame Peninsula in Cornwall, this coastal gem exudes an undeniable charm that has withstood the test of time. In this snapshot, our gaze is immediately drawn to the iconic Cawsand Congregational Church, its roof peeking out over the Cavehole fish cellars. These historic structures served as vital hubs for local fishermen, where their daily catch was processed and prepared for market. Just beyond sight lies Kingsand, another quaint fishing village hidden from view but known for its Martins Cove fish cellars built upon North Rock. The scene unfolds against a backdrop of azure sea and golden sands. Nets are meticulously spread out on the beach by hardworking hands eager to mend or dry them before embarking on yet another day at sea. The tranquility captured in this moment evokes a sense of nostalgia and reverence for Cornwall's rich maritime heritage. As we peer into this photograph frozen in time, it is impossible not to marvel at how much has changed while simultaneously appreciating what remains constant: the enduring beauty of Cornwall's coastline and its intimate connection with those who have relied upon it throughout history.
