EDITORS COMMENTS
Transporting us back in time to the idyllic coastal town of Perranporth, this print captures a delightful scene from around 1900. Nestled against the rugged cliffs stands Chapel Rock, an iconic landmark that has witnessed countless moments of joy and serenity throughout history. In this particular snapshot, we are invited to join a lively party of several people and children as they revel in the simple pleasures of life on this picturesque beach. Dressed in their finest attire, men donning straw hats and women adorned with elegant parasols, these beachgoers exude an air of sophistication amidst the natural beauty surrounding them. The soft sand beneath their feet serves as both playground and picnic spot, where laughter mingles with the soothing sound of crashing waves. It is evident that each member cherishes this momentary escape from daily routines, finding solace in the tranquility offered by Cornwall's stunning coastline. Photographed by William Thomas, whose lens effortlessly captured not only faces but also emotions frozen in time forevermore; this image now finds its home within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of our enduring connection to nature's wonders and how generations before us sought solace along these very shores. This photograph encapsulates a timeless essence - one that transcends eras - inviting us to reflect on cherished memories made under sunny skies at Chapel Rock.
