EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bustling harbour scene in Padstow, Cornwall on a picturesque summer day. Dated 12th June 1906, it offers a glimpse into the vibrant maritime life of this coastal town over a century ago. In the foreground, two fishing boats named Royal Highlander PW11 and Annie PW10 steal the spotlight with their sturdy presence against the glistening sea. The skilled mast men maneuvering these vessels showcase their expertise as they navigate through the tranquil waters. As our gaze shifts towards the background, we are greeted by an elegant schooner known as Guiding Star majestically sailing amidst distant horizons. Its grandeur adds an air of adventure to this already captivating scene. Not far behind, another boat named BM70 Succeed can be spotted gracefully gliding across the water's surface. The photograph also provides glimpses of daily life within Padstow's harbor community. A cluster of charming buildings stands proudly along its shores, serving as reminders of both resilience and heritage that have shaped this quaint town for generations to come. Captured by renowned photographer Herbert Hughes, this image transports us back in time to witness moments frozen forever in history. It serves as a testament to Cornwall's deep-rooted connection with its seafaring traditions and evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler times spent among fishermen and boys who once roamed these very shores.
