EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a picturesque scene at Porthoustock in St Keverne, Cornwall. The view on the left showcases a cluster of sturdy stone barges resting gracefully at the quarry jetty, while the beach provides a tranquil foreground. Renowned photographer Arthur William Jordan skillfully captures this moment, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of these stone barges. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, our eyes are drawn further out into the sea where a tugboat and yacht sail peacefully alongside some rowing boats. This glimpse of maritime activity adds an extra layer of intrigue to an already enchanting composition. Situated within Cornwall's stunning Lizard Peninsula, Porthoustock is known for its rich history and natural splendor. The area's quarries were once vital sources of high-quality stone used for construction purposes throughout Britain. These very same stone barges featured in the photograph played a crucial role in transporting this valuable resource across coastal waters. With its timeless charm and historical significance, this print serves as both a visual delight and a testament to Cornwall's industrial heritage. It allows us to reflect on how human ingenuity has shaped landscapes over time while also appreciating nature's enduring beauty that surrounds it all
