EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to the devastating Flood of 1894 in St Ives, Cornwall. The image captures the aftermath of this catastrophic event, showcasing a scene of utter destruction and despair. The Stennack area is depicted as a haunting landscape of wreckage and ruin, with buildings reduced to mere shells and debris scattered across what was once a bustling neighborhood. Amidst this desolation, one cannot help but notice the presence of a child and a man standing amidst the ruins. Their figures provide scale to the immense devastation surrounding them, emphasizing the sheer magnitude of this natural disaster. It is impossible not to wonder about their stories - how they coped with such overwhelming circumstances and what hardships they endured during these trying times. The photographer behind this poignant image is John Charles Burrow, whose lens captured not only physical damage but also an emotional narrative that resonates even today. This photograph serves as a reminder of humanity's vulnerability in the face of nature's wrath while also highlighting our resilience in rebuilding shattered communities. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported back over a century ago when lives were forever altered by forces beyond human control. It stands as both an important document for understanding our past and honoring those who lived through such challenging moments in history.
