EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the summer of 1910, this remarkable print transports us back to a bygone era at Perranporth Golf Course in Perranzabuloe, Cornwall. The breathtaking view from the course overlooks the pristine beach and extends all the way to the charming town beyond. As our gaze wanders further, we catch sight of Nobels explosives works perched atop Cligga Head hill, a testament to Cornwall's rich industrial heritage. In this scene, two elegantly dressed ladies and a gentleman stand gracefully in the foreground, adding an air of sophistication and leisure to the photograph. Their presence reminds us that golf has long been enjoyed as both a sport and social activity throughout history. The photographer behind this timeless image is Herbert Hughes, whose keen eye for detail beautifully captures every element within his frame. From the rugged cliffs that hug Cornwall's north coast to the soft sands below, each feature tells its own story. While it is impossible not to acknowledge Nobels explosives works in this picture, let us appreciate it solely as part of Cornwall's historical landscape rather than any commercial use it may have had. Instead, let us focus on immersing ourselves in this stunning portrayal of nature meeting human ingenuity – where rolling greens meet crashing waves against a backdrop of towering cliffs. This print from Royal Cornwall Museum serves as a window into an enchanting moment frozen in time – inviting us to explore and marvel at Perranporth's natural beauty intertwined with its vibrant history
