EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the enchanting coastal landscape of St Levan, Cornwall in 1898. The image captures the mesmerizing view of Carn les Boel from Pendower Cove, showcasing the rugged headland and vast expanse of sea stretching out before us. As we gaze into the distance, our eyes are drawn to a faint silhouette on the horizon - The Longships Lighthouse, standing tall against the elements. In this timeless scene, a solitary figure sits upon a massive granite rock in the foreground. His presence adds a touch of human connection amidst nature's grandeur. We can only wonder about his thoughts as he contemplates this breathtaking vista. Photographer Herbert Hughes has skillfully captured both the wild beauty and serenity that define Cornwall's coastline. This photograph evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era when Victorian society sought solace in exploring and appreciating nature's wonders. The Cornish charm is palpable through every element within this image - from the dramatic cliffs to the crashing waves below. It serves as a reminder of how deeply intertwined humanity is with its surroundings; how even in moments of solitude, we find ourselves seeking solace by immersing ourselves in such awe-inspiring landscapes. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this print allows us to travel back through time and immerse ourselves in an era where capturing natural beauty was not just an art form but also an expression of reverence for our remarkable planet.
