EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1914 takes us back in time to the picturesque village of Bodinnick, nestled in the enchanting Lanteglos by Fowey region of Cornwall. The scene captures a serene view down the hill, adorned with charming cottages and vibrant flora. At the bottom of the slope stands a lady, elegantly poised beside a stone wall opposite Ye Old Ferry House. The photographer, Herbert Hughes, skillfully immortalized this momentous day, most likely on the 6th of July. His lens perfectly frames an intriguing detail that adds patriotic flair to this idyllic setting: a proud Union Jack flag fluttering gently in the breeze. This symbol serves as a reminder of national unity during those times. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in history, it is important to note that this caption does not mention any commercial use associated with Royal Cornwall Museum or any other entity involved with this photograph's reproduction or distribution. Instead, it focuses solely on appreciating and understanding its historical significance. Through this image, we are transported back over a century ago when life was simpler yet filled with charm and natural beauty. It invites us to explore Bodinnick's rich heritage while marveling at its timeless allure—a testament to Cornwall's enduring appeal as captured by Herbert Hughes' keen eye for detail and composition.
