EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print from 1894, showcasing a charming cottage nestled by the sea in Cadgwith harbour, Cornwall. The image transports us to an era long gone, where simplicity and tranquility reigned supreme. Two men and a woman proudly stand outside the cottage, their faces etched with stories of hard work and resilience. The rugged beauty of the Cornish coastline serves as a breathtaking backdrop for this snapshot of history. The waves crash against the rocky shore, reminding us of the deep connection between these inhabitants and the sea that sustains them. A hook adorned with freshly caught fish hangs outside the door—a testament to their livelihoods as skilled fishermen. Photographer Herbert Hughes has masterfully captured not only a physical scene but also an essence—the spirit of Cornish life at its core. In this single frame, we glimpse into a world where community bonds were strong, nature was revered, and traditions were passed down through generations. This remarkable print evokes nostalgia for simpler times while celebrating the rich heritage of Cornwall's fishing communities. It is a window into an era when life revolved around hard work on land and sea—where cottages like these stood as beacons of warmth amidst unpredictable tides
