EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to possibly 1902, capturing a picturesque scene of Boscastle Harbour in Cornwall. The focal point of the image is the majestic schooner named "Lively" of Bideford, gracefully moored alongside the quay as it unloads its precious cargo of coal. This snapshot freezes a moment in history when maritime trade was bustling along this charming coastal village. The composition showcases not only the vessel but also provides a glimpse into daily life during that era. In the foreground, we see sturdy Cornish horses pulling carts laden with goods, while men diligently work together to ensure a smooth unloading process. The river meanders through the frame, reflecting sunlight and adding an ethereal touch to this idyllic setting. Nestled on the hillside are quaint buildings that exude timeless charm and bear witness to centuries-old traditions. Boats dotting the harbor proudly display their masts and rigging against a backdrop of rolling hills and lush greenery. The intricate network of ropes crisscrossing above creates an enchanting visual spectacle. This remarkable photograph by Herbert Hughes transports us back to an era where commerce thrived upon these shores, reminding us of Cornwall's rich maritime heritage. It serves as both a historical record and a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance amidst nature's beauty
