EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Poul na Gurn in Glengariff Harbor, County Cork, Ireland. Dating from the late 19th century, this picturesque view transports us to a bygone era. The colorful houses and boats nestled along the shoreline are bathed in the soft glow of a sunny day, creating a sense of peace and tranquility. The natural beauty of the harbor is on full display, with the crystal-clear waters reflecting the vibrant hues of the scene. Poul na Gurn, which translates to 'the hole of the bull' in Irish, was once a bustling fishing village. The boats moored in the harbor would have been filled with fresh catches, providing sustenance for the community. The village was also known for its shipbuilding industry, with vessels being constructed on the shores of the harbor. This photograph, which is believed to have been taken between 1890 and 1900, is a testament to the rich history and heritage of County Cork. The use of the Photochrom process, which involved the application of a series of color filters to photographs, adds an extra layer of depth and nostalgia to the image. As we gaze at this charming scene, we are reminded of the simple pleasures of life and the importance of preserving our historical and cultural heritage. Take a moment to appreciate the beauty of Poul na Gurn in Glengariff Harbor, County Cork, Ireland, and let your mind wander to a time when life moved at a slower pace.
