EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the picturesque coastal village of Trevalga, Cornwall, probably captured in 1925 by the talented photographer Herbert Hughes. The image showcases a breathtaking view from Western Blackapit in Forrabury Parish, offering an enchanting panorama of Short Island and its majestic cliffs. As our eyes wander across this mesmerizing scene, we are immediately drawn to the prominent features that adorn the landscape. On the left side of the frame, nestled amidst nature's embrace, stands the charming Church of St Petroc. Its ancient stonework exudes a sense of tranquility and spirituality against the backdrop of rolling hills and endless blue skies. In the center lies Trevalga Manor house, an architectural gem that commands attention with its grandeur and elegance. This imposing structure seems to harmonize effortlessly with its surroundings as if it has been there for centuries. The rugged coastline stretches out before us like a painter's canvas; crashing waves meet towering cliffs with unyielding force. The sea sparkles under sunlight, inviting us to immerse ourselves in its cool embrace while exploring hidden coves and secret beaches along this Cornish shoreline. This remarkable photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Cornwall's timeless beauty. It transports us back to an era where simplicity reigned supreme and invites us to appreciate nature's wonders through Hughes' lens.
