EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Peter Barritt showcases the haunting beauty of Wheal Reath, a ruined Cornish tin mine engine house located in Cripplesease near St. Ives, West Cornwall. The image captures the essence of this historical site with its striking architecture and rugged stone structure set against a backdrop of clear blue skies and fluffy white clouds. The photograph transports us to an era when mining was at its peak in Cornwall, reminding us of the region's rich industrial heritage. The abandoned engine house stands as a testament to the once-thriving mining industry that shaped this landscape. Barritt's expert photography skillfully captures every detail, from the weathered stones to the intricate design elements of the building. The horizontal composition allows us to fully appreciate the grandeur and scale of this architectural marvel. With no people present in the frame, we are left alone to contemplate both the solitude and resilience embodied by these ruins. It is a scene that evokes a sense of awe and wonderment at nature's ability to reclaim what was once man-made. This stunning print serves as a reminder not only of England's history but also as an invitation for travelers seeking unique destinations off-the-beaten-path. Wheal Reath is undoubtedly one such place where visitors can immerse themselves in both natural beauty and cultural significance.
