EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1914 showcases the serene beauty of The River Fowey at Lerryn, St Veep in Cornwall. Captured by the talented photographer Herbert Hughes, this image transports us back in time to a simpler era. In the foreground, we see a small boat gracefully navigating the gentle currents of the river. Its presence adds a touch of tranquility and hints at the timeless connection between man and nature. As our gaze extends further into the frame, charming cottages emerge on either side of the riverbank. These humble abodes stand as witnesses to generations past, their stone walls echoing stories untold. The composition is bathed in soft sunlight that casts a warm glow over every detail. It illuminates each ripple on the water's surface and dances through leaves gently swaying in harmony with nature's rhythm. This ethereal light captures not just an image but also an atmosphere—a sense of peace and serenity that seems to permeate every corner of this idyllic scene. As we immerse ourselves in this photograph, it becomes clear why Cornwall has long been cherished for its breathtaking landscapes. The River Fowey at Lerryn embodies all that is magical about this region—its untouched natural beauty, its rich history, and its ability to transport us to another time. This print serves as more than just a visual representation; it invites us to pause and reflect on our own connection with nature and heritage—a reminder that amidst life's chaos, there are places
