EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the fading light of a bygone era, this remarkable print transports us to Temple Bar, Port Isaac, Cornwall in the year 1906. Standing proudly on the left is John (Jack) Glover, a man whose journey led him from toiling on the LWSR line to Padstow to finding solace and purpose within the charming village of Port Isaac. His weathered face tells tales of hard work and determination etched into his very being. On Jack's right stands a young boy named Willie Blake, whose innocent gaze hints at dreams yet unfulfilled. Tragically, fate would intervene as World War I claimed young Willie's life before he could fully realize his potential. A poignant reminder that even amidst idyllic landscapes like Temple Bar, war casts its long shadow over lives cut short. The mastermind behind this evocative snapshot is none other than Herbert Hughes—an unsung artist who skillfully captured moments frozen in time with his lens. Through his keen eye for detail and composition, Hughes immortalized these ordinary individuals against an extraordinary backdrop—a testament to their resilience and spirit. Preserved within the archives of Royal Cornwall Museum, this print serves as a visual gateway into history—unveiling stories untold and faces forgotten. It reminds us that every person has a tale worth sharing; every place holds secrets waiting to be discovered.
