EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to August 1928 with this print of St Michaels Mount at Low Tide. This stunning GWR publicity image showcases the iconic Cornish landmark in all its glory, as a ribbon of people leisurely stroll along the causeway that connects the castle to Marazion. The picture perfectly captures the essence of a summer's day on Cornwall's picturesque coastline. The glistening sea stretches out towards the horizon, reflecting the warm August sun. The rugged coastlines frame the scene, adding an element of natural beauty and grandeur. In this snapshot from nearly a century ago, we are transported to a simpler time when visitors would flock to marvel at St Michaels Mount during low tide. The castle stands proudly atop its rocky perch, seemingly untouched by time. As we gaze upon this historic photograph, we can't help but imagine what life was like in those carefree days of the 1920s. Perhaps families were enjoying their summer holidays or locals were taking advantage of their proximity to such a remarkable landmark. This print is not just an image frozen in time; it is a portal into history and an invitation for us to explore and appreciate our rich cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder that some things may change over time, but certain landmarks endure as timeless symbols of beauty and wonder.
