EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1897, we are transported back in time to the rugged beauty of Kynance Cove in Landewednack, Cornwall. The focal point of the image is Sugar Loaf Rock, standing tall and majestic against the crashing waves of the Atlantic Ocean. Nestled on the sandy beach nearby is a young man dressed in a sailor suit, his gaze fixed upon the horizon with an air of curiosity and adventure. Photographed by Herbert Hughes, this snapshot captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects the spirit of Victorian-era Cornwall. The young man's attire hints at a connection to maritime traditions that were deeply ingrained within Cornish culture during that period. As our eyes wander beyond the central figure, we can't help but be drawn into the breathtaking landscape surrounding him. This photograph offers us a glimpse into The Lizard Peninsula's wild charm - its dramatic cliffs cascading down into turquoise waters below. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this print serves as both a historical record and an artistic testament to Cornwall's natural wonders. It invites us to imagine ourselves strolling along those very shores over a century ago when life was simpler yet filled with endless possibilities for exploration and discovery
