EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of Fishing Boats going out in Penzance, a coastal town in Cornwall, England. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this image is part of a private collection. The scene depicts a fleet of fishing boats setting sail from Penzance's picturesque harbor. The monochromatic tones add depth and evoke a sense of nostalgia, transporting viewers back to a simpler time when fishing was not just an occupation but also a way of life. This photograph originally appeared as an illustration in the Photographic View Album of Penzance and Neighbourhood, published around 1895. Its inclusion in this album speaks to its significance as a visual representation of the history and charm that define this region. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we can almost feel the salty breeze on our faces and hear the gentle lapping of waves against weathered wooden hulls. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modernization and change, some traditions endure. Penzance's rich maritime heritage is beautifully encapsulated within this single frame. Whether you have personal ties to Cornwall or simply appreciate historical photography, this print transports you to another era where fishing boats were symbols of livelihood and adventure. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece with great care so that future generations can continue to admire its beauty and connect with the past it represents.
