EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the picturesque Penvose Beach in Veryan, Cornwall, circa 1910. The image captures a moment of leisure and joy as several bathers enjoy the refreshing waters of this unknown bathing beach. Nestled beneath the towering cliffs and overlooking the vast expanse of the coast, Penvose Beach radiates tranquility and natural beauty. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is Arthur William Jordan, whose keen eye for detail allows us to immerse ourselves in this bygone era. As we gaze at the photograph, we can't help but be drawn to the fashionable bathing suits worn by these individuals who dared to defy societal norms and embrace seaside adventures. The crystal-clear water glistens under the warm sun, inviting swimmers to plunge into its depths. The rhythmic sound of waves crashing against rugged rocks creates a soothing melody that resonates with anyone fortunate enough to witness such breathtaking scenery. Penvose Farm stands proudly above this idyllic scene, serving as a silent witness to countless memories made on its shores throughout history. This hidden gem lies just west of West Portholland—a secret oasis waiting patiently for those seeking solace amidst nature's wonders. As we admire this timeless photograph from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, it reminds us that some things never change—the allure of Cornish beaches remains eternal; their magnetic pull draws people towards their untamed beauty and promises unforgettable experiences filled with laughter and serenity.
