EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the early 1900s, this vintage print takes us back to Cape Cornwall Street in St Just, Penwith, Cornwall. The bustling street scene showcases a snapshot of everyday life during the Victorian and Edwardian era. Two men and three boys strike a pose for the camera, their youthful energy radiating through the lens. In the distance, a woman gracefully walks away from the camera, adding an air of mystery to the composition. The architectural beauty of this historic town is evident as we gaze upon this image. On the right side stands a charming chapel that would later be repurposed as a Sunday School—a testament to how buildings evolve with time. Further along our line of sight looms the majestic tower of St Just in Penwith Parish Church, its presence dominating over all else. Although we do not know who precisely captured this moment frozen in time, it is clear that they possessed an eye for detail and appreciation for preserving history. This photograph serves as both a visual record and a portal into Cornwall's past—allowing us to immerse ourselves in its rich heritage
