EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1901 transports us to the quaint village of Penwartha, nestled in the idyllic countryside of Perranzabuloe, Cornwall. The image showcases a general view of charming cottages that exude rustic charm and Cornish character. With their thatched roofs and stone walls, these cottages stand as timeless symbols of rural life in this picturesque region. In the foreground, we are greeted by a heartwarming scene: children gleefully playing in the back garden of one of these delightful cottages. Their laughter fills the air as they chase each other amidst blooming flowers and lush greenery. Beyond them, two more youngsters can be seen outside the cottage's back gate, perhaps contemplating their next adventure or simply enjoying an afternoon in nature's embrace. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is Herbert Hughes, whose keen eye for detail has immortalized this slice of Cornish history. Through his lens, he captures not only the physical beauty but also the essence and spirit of a close-knit community living harmoniously with nature. This print serves as a window into a simpler time when life revolved around tight-knit communities and cherished moments spent outdoors. It reminds us to appreciate our surroundings and find joy in even the simplest pleasures—a lesson that transcends time and resonates with all who lay eyes on this piece from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection.
