EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1925 takes us back to the picturesque Port du Moulin on the enchanting island of Sark in the Channel Islands. The image, captured by GWR for promotional purposes, showcases the breathtaking coastal arches that adorn this idyllic bay. With its rugged cliffs and crystal-clear waters, Port du Moulin has long been a favorite destination for visitors seeking tranquility and natural beauty. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era of simplicity and serenity. The pebbled beach stretches out before us, inviting barefoot strolls along the shore. Smooth rocks dotting the landscape add a touch of character to this already stunning scene. The charm of Sark's coast is further enhanced by these magnificent arches carved by centuries of relentless waves crashing against them. They stand as silent sentinels guarding this hidden gem nestled within nature's embrace. In the 1920s, when travel was still a luxury reserved for few fortunate souls, images like these served as windows into distant lands waiting to be explored. This particular photograph undoubtedly enticed countless adventurers to set sail towards Sark's shores. Today, as we admire this remarkable piece of history preserved at STEAM Museum of GWR, let it remind us that some places remain timeless havens where one can escape from the chaos of modern life and reconnect with nature's wonders.
