EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of St. Mary's Pulpit Rock in the Scilly Isles, Cornwall, England. Dating back to the late 19th century, this nostalgic photograph transports us to a bygone era with its rich, colored hues and picturesque composition. The Pulpit Rock, a natural granite formation, is a popular landmark on the island of St. Mary's in the Scilly Isles. Located near the harbor, the rock derives its name from its resemblance to a pulpit, a platform used for public speaking in religious services. The rock juts out of the sea, surrounded by the crystal-clear waters, creating a striking contrast against the blue sky. This photograph, taken between approximately 1890 and 1900, showcases the natural beauty of the Scilly Isles during the Victorian era. The image is a testament to the rich history and heritage of Cornwall, England, and offers a glimpse into the past. The use of the Photochrom process, a popular method for producing colored photographs during this time, adds to the nostalgic charm of the image. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the sound of the waves crashing against the rock and feel the cool sea breeze on our faces. The Pulpit Rock stands as a reminder of the power and majesty of nature, untouched by the passage of time. This photograph is not only a historical artifact but also a work of art that evokes a sense of wonder and longing for the past.
