EDITORS COMMENTS
Transported back in time to the early 1900s, this print captures the essence of Mevagissey's inner harbour in Cornwall. As the tide recedes, revealing a mesmerizing scene, we find ourselves immersed in the heart of this picturesque Cornish village. The boat yard corner comes alive with an impressive fleet of fishing boats, each one telling its own story. Amongst them stands FY386 ZONA and FY145, proudly displaying their names on weathered hulls that have weathered countless storms at sea. These vessels symbolize the resilience and determination of local fishermen who braved treacherous waters to provide for their community. The tranquility exuded by this image is palpable; it transports us to a simpler time when life revolved around the ebb and flow of tides. The charm of Mevagissey shines through every detail - from quaint cottages nestled along cobblestone streets to seagulls soaring overhead. This print serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate Cornwall's rich maritime heritage. It reminds us that beyond its breathtaking landscapes and idyllic villages lies a deep connection between man and nature – where livelihoods were forged upon the waves. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, let us be reminded of our roots and honor those who came before us – brave souls whose spirits still echo through these ancient harbors.
